  1. The Customer will be responsible for installing the Hardware (unless otherwise agreed in writing with Epos Now) and will keep the Hardware in the environmental conditions recommended by Epos Now and ensure that the external surfaces, cables and fittings of the Hardware are kept in good, clean condition.
  2. The Customer will ensure that the Hardware is only used by properly trained staff in accordance with Epos Now’s instructions from time to time. The Customer will ensure that only personnel authorised by Epos Now adjust, modify, configure, maintain, repair, replace or remove any part of the Hardware.
  3. The Customer will maintain adequate records of the use, maintenance and malfunction of the Hardware and will provide Epos Now with such information and assistance concerning the Hardware, its application, use, location and environment as Epos Now may reasonably require to enable it to carry out the Support Plan.
  4. The Customer will immediately notify Epos Now if there is any failure of the Hardware or the System and will allow Epos Now full and free access to the Hardware and all documentation, software, materials and services necessary for the provision of the Support Plan. The Customer will ensure that relevant trained and experienced staff are available when required by Epos Now to provide Epos Now with information required to diagnose and/or repair the issue.
  5. It is the Customer’s sole responsibility to regularly operate and verify a proper back-up routine, maintaining all back-up copies in a secure environment.
  6. The Customer undertakes to put and keep in place adequate security measures and up-to-date firewalls to protect the Hardware, Software and Systems from any viruses, harmful code or unauthorised access. Epos Now shall not be responsible for any unauthorised access to the System by means of hacking, any unauthorised access of the Hardware with intent to commit or facilitate the commission of an offence or any unauthorised modification of the Hardware by a third party.
  7. The Customer is responsible for ensuring that their login password to the Epos Now Systems remains secure and confidential. The Customer should update their password regularly and ‘remember me’ type functions should not be used on publicly available or shared computers.

7. Internet / Network Requirements

  1. Epos Now’s Products require a reliable and robust connection to the internet / local network to take advantage of all of the online features and benefits. It is the Customer’s responsibility to ensure that it has an appropriate internet / local network connection in place prior to installation of the Software and to also ensure that the internet connection is maintained correctly and includes an up-to-date firewall. The recommended internet speeds are a minimum 7Mbps download speed and 0.6Mbps upload speed to support up to four till devices. Larger locations / installations will need higher internet speeds as appropriate to the size of installation and business. This speed requirement does not include any additional internet usage required over and above the Epos Now System such as staff or guest networks or other business requirements. Internet speeds and consistencies can be checked by using internet speed test websites or by contacting the applicable internet service provider.
  2. The Customer must provide a separate physical network or a separate V-LAN for Epos Now systems. This must not be shared with other devices, particularly those that cause high volume, high congestion or unpredictable network loads including (but not limited to) guest networks and music or video streaming devices.
  3. The Customer is solely responsible for any connection charges, line rental charges and call charges in relation to any Products.
  4. Whilst Epos Now representatives may provide advice and an indication of the suitability of the Customer’s internet / local network connection, it remains the Customer’s sole responsibility to ensure it has a suitable internet / local network connection both before and after an order is placed. Epos Now is not responsible for any slow responses to its Systems, including where this is caused by the Customer’s poor internet / local network connection.
  5. Provision of Local Area Network (LAN) infrastructure (e.g. cabling, network switches, WAN router) is the responsibility of the Customer and should be appropriate to the size of business and criticality of the operation.
  6. Where the System is to be used over wifi (e.g. tablets/mobile devices):
    1. the Customer is responsible for the setup, configuration and management of both the wifi infrastructure and the Customer devices. This includes ensuring wifi coverage in required areas and ensuring network dropouts due to wifi roaming are minimised; and
    2. the Customer must consider that wifi is not as robust as a wired network and network dropouts can occur due to wifi coverage, access point roaming, tablet sleep modes as well as other environmental factors. This is not unique to Epos Now Systems and should be considered when selecting a wifi solution.
  7. Epos Now Systems are designed to work offline, but where no network connection (LAN or WAN) is available or the network connection is unreliable, some functionality is reduced.
  8. Where Customer devices are used offline for long periods, the Customer must ensure that such devices are regularly (at least every 7 days) connected to the internet to ensure data is synchronised with its servers. All till devices must regularly (at least every 7 days) perform ‘End of Day/Close Till’ operations to ensure that the local data store can be archived to the servers.

8. Hardware as a Service (Monthly Fee: Hardware without up-front costs)

  1. Epos Now offers a monthly fee subscription option for the provision of the Products, whereby it will supply Hardware and/or Software solutions without any upfront cost. This includes CCTV integration. For this option, fees are charged on a monthly basis with a minimum contract term equal to the HaaS Period (“Subscription Contract”).
  2. If the Customer cancels the Subscription Contract within the HaaS Period, or in accordance with clause 8.3.3 below, it must return any Hardware it has received and pay the remaining balance for the remainder of the HaaS Period. This is calculated by multiplying the number of months outstanding by the applicable monthly fee.
  3. At least 90 days prior to the end of the HaaS Period the Customer shall notify Epos Now of its choice to either:
    1. upgrade the Hardware where applicable and continue payment under the Subscription Service at the same rate (unless notified to the Customer by Epos Now from time to time in accordance with these terms). This will be for a further fixed period equal to the HaaS Period. All rights relating to Product warranties and the Swap It service shall continue to apply to the Hardware; or
    2. keep the current Hardware and continue payment under the Subscription Service at the same rate (unless notified to the Customer by Epos Now from time to time in accordance with these terms). The rental of the Hardware under this option shall be on a rolling monthly basis, which may be cancelled at any time by the Customer providing Epos Now with at least one month’s prior written notice. All rights relating to Product warranties and the Swap It service shall continue to apply to the Hardware; or
    3. cancel the Subscription Contract with effect from the end of the Subscription Contract term, and if the Customer fails to notify Epos Now within this 90 day period, clause 8.3.2 shall apply as the default position.
  4. Subject to clause 8.2, either party can terminate the Subscription Contract at any time by providing the other party with at least 30 days’ prior written notice.

  6. The Customer must arrange the safe return of Hardware within 10 Working Days of the end of the Subscription Contract.
  7. If the Products are not returned, after a period of 10 Working Days from the end of the Subscription Contract (or any earlier date where termination takes place during the HaaS Period) that Epos Now has not received the Hardware, Epos Now will charge an additional £25 (ex vat) per item.

9. Product Rental

  1. Epos Now may offer the ability to rent the Products from Epos Now and where this is possible, it will notify the Customer of the rental period, and the applicable fees for that period.
  2. On acceptance of an order, a deposit per point of sale terminal will be taken in addition to the first month’s rental fee. If the rental period is greater than one month, the subsequent payments will be due in one-month intervals, starting from the first date of the rental period.
  3. Epos Now will remain the owner of the Products and will retain title in them at all times.
  4. It is the Customer’s responsibility to ensure that the Hardware is maintained and returned in the same condition as it was dispatched (fair wear and tear excepted)
  5. The Customer must arrange the safe return of Hardware within five Working Days of the end of the rental period.
  6. Epos Now may offer to collect the Hardware, however, it is the Customer’s responsibility to document the cosmetic condition before the Hardware is collected by Epos Now (or Epos Now’s third-party courier).
  7. For each day after the five Working Days from the end of the rental period that Epos Now has not received the Hardware, Epos Now will charge an additional £25 (ex vat) per item.
  8. Upon return of the Hardware, Epos Now will inspect the Hardware and compile a report. Based on the report, a full refund of the deposit may be made, less any adjustments. If the Customer is eligible for a return of the deposit, this payment will be made within 14 Working Days of receiving the returned Hardware.
  9. If the Hardware is returned in a damaged condition where the cost of repair or replacement exceeds the value of the deposit, Epos Now retains the right to invoice the Customer for an additional sum to cover the damage exceeding the value of the deposit. The Customer must pay this sum within 14 days of the date of the applicable invoice.
  10. If the Hardware is not returned after 28 days after the rental period, Epos Now will withhold the entirety of the deposit and invoice the Customer for the remaining value of the Products and any charges outstanding. This must be paid within 14 days of the date of the applicable invoice.
  11. The Hardware rental does not include any ongoing services or consumables (e.g. support, applications or peripheral hardware such as USB scanners), but these are available on request (subject to agreed fees).

  5. Notwithstanding the above clauses, the warranties stated in this clause 17 shall not apply to:
    1. any third-party hardware. Third-party hardware is any hardware that is not manufactured by Epos Now, or any Hardware which is not branded with the Epos Now name and/or logo;
    2. any Hardware that has been tampered with, repaired and/or modified by non-authorised personnel;
    3. any Hardware where the warranty seals have been broken or altered;
    4. any damage (accidental or other) to the Hardware that is cosmetic (meaning that damage that does not impact the operation and functioning of the Hardware), including rust, change in colour, texture or finish, wear and tear and gradual deterioration;
    5. any damage to the Hardware caused by war, terrorism, fire, accident, natural disasters, intentional or accidental misuse, abuse, neglect or improper maintenance, use under abnormal conditions, accidental drops, spills, or power surges;
    6. any damage to the Hardware caused by improper installation, connection or malfunction of a peripheral device such as a printer, optical drive, network card, or USB device;
    7. any damage to the Hardware through the Customer’s neglect to protect the Hardware, Software or System from viruses;
    8. any damage to the Hardware caused by an external electrical fault or any accident;
    9. fraud, theft unexplained disappearance or wilful acts;
    10. liquid or fluid damage or contamination of any kind; or
    11. any damage caused by user error such as malware, uninstallation, other programs, mistreatment or any software problems that are caused by use of anything other than Epos Now Software.
  6. If the Customer believes that the Hardware contains a fault that is covered by the warranties provided herein, the Customer must report the issue to Epos Now in writing within the applicable warranty period and, at the Customer’s expense, return the item to Epos Now for inspection. Within 28 days of receiving the Hardware in question, Epos Now will examine the item and if covered by the warranty, at Epos Now’s discretion, Epos Now will either replace the Hardware with one of similar performance and capabilities or repair the Hardware. If a device fails outside of the first 30 days of original purchase, Epos Now retains the right to replace or repair the Hardware with refurbished or remanufactured parts. If Epos Now determines that the Hardware is outside of the warranty rights, Epos Now will, at the Customer’s request, prepare a quote for repair or replacement of the item in question. The Customer can then choose to pay for the repair or replacement or to have its original Hardware returned to it (at the Customer’s expense).
  7. Where Epos Now replaces or repairs Hardware under warranty, or as a chargeable out of warranty service, the repaired or replacement Hardware inherits the remaining warranty period from the original Hardware. If the original Hardware has less than 30 calendar days of warranty remaining, the replacement or repaired Hardware will receive a warranty of 30 calendar days.
  8. If any new Hardware fails within the first 30 days of its original purchase, and is covered by a warranty, Epos Now will replace the device with new Hardware, at Epos Now’s expense.

18. Swap It service

  1. If the Customer has purchased a Support Plan, and where the Hardware is covered by a Limited Warranty or Extended Warranty, the Customer is entitled to have its Return to Base warranty upgraded to the Swap It service.
  2. If the Customer notifies Epos Now prior to 3.00pm (GMT) on a Working Day of a fault with the Hardware, Epos Now will arrange for a courier to deliver replacement Hardware (of a similar specification to the original) to be delivered the following Working Day.
  3. When the courier delivers the replacement Hardware, they will collect the failed Hardware. The courier will not leave the replacement Hardware without taking away the failed Hardware. The courier will allow a maximum of 15 minutes for the replacement to occur. It is not possible to arrange a specific time of day for the replacement to occur.
  4. If Epos Now is notified of the need for a Swap It after 3.00pm (GMT) or on a non-Working Day, the replacement Hardware will be delivered within two Working Days’ time.
  5. The Swap It service is only available for addresses in the UK. For all addresses outside of the UK the Customer must use the Return to Base option.
  6. The Swap It service is not available on Hardware for which there is no Epos Now warranty, for example third-party products not manufactured by Epos Now.
  7. If Hardware fails outside of the first 30 days of original purchase, Epos Now retains the right to replace or repair the Product with refurbished or remanufactured parts.
  8. The Customer, wherever possible, must also provide the serial number of the Hardware to be swapped when requested by an Epos Now support agent. Failure to do so may result in a refusal of the Swap It case.
  9. When Hardware is returned to Epos Now via a Swap It, Epos Now will inspect the device to ensure that it should be replaced under warranty. Epos Now only offers the Swap It service to Hardware that is covered by an Epos Now warranty. Whilst Epos Now tries to validate the warranty status before agreeing to perform a Swap It, there are occasions where Epos Now perform a Swap It on Hardware that are not covered by warranty. If it is found to be out of warranty Epos Now reserves the right to raise an invoice, due immediately, for the Customer to pay the replacement cost.
  10. Hardware can be out of warranty for many reasons, including (but not limited to):
    1. the warranty period has expired;
    2. any of the circumstances of clause 17.5 apply; or
    3. improper or insufficient cleaning and maintenance.
  11. If the Hardware returned is found to be in working condition but in a poor and unreasonable state of cleanliness, the Customer will be billed for cleaning the Hardware at a fixed rate per item.

    11. the Customer or a third party has tried to open or tamper with the Hardware in some way;

    13. if the item is sold as faulty via Epos Now’s auctions or clearance;
    14. if the item is part of a custom or large order;
    15. the item is not returned in its original packaging;
    16. the Customer has not paid the annual Software licence fee; or
    17. the Products are not in 'as new' condition upon their purchase by the Customer.
  7. Epos Now shall assess the return request by using the following process:
    1. Epos Now shall use reasonable endeavours to understand why the Customer feels the Product is ‘unfit for purpose’ and attempt to reasonably resolve any issues when highlighted by the Customer via remote desktop;
    2. Epos Now shall attend the Customer’s business premises if the situation cannot be resolved remotely to perform a site survey and on-site training or repair. This may be subject to a charge; and
    3. once the issue is identified, Epos Now must be given reasonable time to resolve the issue (and with the Customer’s assistance (where applicable) to do so).
  8. The Customer is responsible for the delivery of the Products back to Epos Now at the Customer’s expense, and only after the Products have been checked by an engineer of Epos Now, will any payment be agreed upon and released. Reasonable return costs (at the cheapest available rate) will be refunded by Epos Now where a fault is identified.
  9. Refunds will only be made after reasonable endeavours have been made by Epos Now to resolve the issue.
  10. In the event of a return, refunds, credit notes and exchanges can only be made to the card account or business/person that made the order originally, and these will be processed within 28 days of the item’s return to Epos Now.

  12. Any amounts paid for on-site installations, product imports, support payments, postage, module integrations and repair and labour cost are non-refundable.

  1. Epos Now endeavours to ensure that all Customers are satisfied with their purchase, however, where problems arise the Customer commits to following the complaints procedure in this clause.
  2. If the Customer is not entirely satisfied with the Products and/or Services, its first action should be to contact the Epos Now support team. Contact details are available at www.eposnow.com/uk/contact-us.
  3. If the issue has not been satisfactorily resolved, the Customer should then make a written complaint either by email to customerrelations@eposnow.com or by post to: Complaints, Epos Now (UK) Limited, 3 Whiting Road, Norwich, NR4 6DJ.

  7. Once the proposed resolution is understood, the assigned manager will write to the Customer documenting the resolution and rationale behind the decision.
  8. Should the Customer still not be happy with the resolution provided, the Customer should contact the assigned manager and notify them that it wishes to escalate the complaint further. No claim will be valid unless the Customer firstly follows the above process.
  9. All sales are bound by the terms of this Agreement and Epos Now asks that the Customer read the full Agreement before raising a complaint. Please note that whilst the Customer’s statutory rights are not affected, this is a business-to-business transaction, and is therefore not governed by consumer law (such as the Consumer Rights Act 2015).
  10. PLEASE NOTE: Epos Now does not tolerate any abusive, offensive or inappropriate behaviour or intimidation towards its staff. In the event that the Customer does not treat Epos Now’s staff in a courteous and professional manner at all times, Epos Now reserves the right to cease all correspondence with the Customer and provide this as evidence of non-cooperation and bad faith in any subsequent legal proceedings.

Introduction

This is a summary of the key terms and conditions applicable to the updated Complete Solution and apply from 22nd August 2022 as between Epos Now (UK) Limited (“Epos Now”, “we”, “Us”) and You.

These terms and conditions take precedence over the terms and conditions on our website and the pricing set out within them.

Our main terms and conditions can be accessed from our website at https://www.eposnow.com/uk/contact-us/about/terms-website-v1/ and still apply where no specific provision is made within these terms and conditions.

We have separate Terms and Conditions for the use of Epos Now Payments, which you will be asked to accept if your proposition is inclusive of this service. Pricing set out in these terms and conditions takes precedence to any sums set out in the Epos Now Payments terms and conditions.

These terms and conditions are reflective of a business-to-business relationship between us and you. We do not enter agreements with consumers (as defined in the Consumer Rights Act 2015).

  1. Our propositions

1.1 We currently offer 4 different propositions to our customers as of 22nd August 2022. These are: Basic Monthly (monthly payment); Basic Upfront (Upfront payment); Plus Monthly (monthly payment); Plus Upfront (Upfront payment). Each of these propositions will in turn also vary in pricing as to whether you choose a 24-month contract or a rolling month-to-month contract and whether you choose to use Epos Now Payments. Further information and pricing is set out in Appendix 1.

1.2 These propositions are for the provision of hardware and software and payment solutions. You can upgrade at any time between each of the propositions.

1.3 Details of our Support are set out in Appendix 2.

  1. Hardware 

2.1 All 4 of our propositions provide you with hardware for your use during the period when you have a continuing software contract with us. 

2.2 For those propositions with an upfront payment, legal title to the hardware will pass to you upon the upfront payment being made

2.3 For those propositions where there is no up-front payment by you, legal title to the hardware remains with us. At the end of your agreement with us the hardware must be returned to us. We will provide you with suitable labels for this purpose. 

2.4 The hardware provided to you in relation to all our propositions is at a discounted price. The full value of the hardware in the Plus Plan is £1,500.00 and £1,200.00 for the Basic (the “Hardware Cost”). You agree that this represents a fair and reasonable valuation of the hardware when new. Where any hardware is not returned to us within 60 days of the due date, Epos Now may invoice you the Hardware Cost.

  1. Term and termination

 

  1. The propositions which are described as having a monthly rolling period can be terminated by you upon giving us one calendar month’s written notice, to expire at the end of a calendar month.

 

  1. The propositions which are for a fixed period continue until the last day of the fixed period. You can give us written notice at any time before that date that you do not wish the agreement to continue beyond, however no notice can have the effect of terminating before the last day of the fixed period. If no notice is given by you, on the expiry of the fixed term the agreement shall continue as month-by-month agreement which can be terminated as in clause 3.1

 

  1. If you wish to terminate before the end of a fixed period, you will be responsible for paying a termination fee being a sum representing the aggregate of the remaining monthly payments falling due before the end of the fixed period. The sum is due immediately and we will apply a discount on payment being received of 3.5%
  2. Unless stated otherwise herein, no cancellation or variation of an order by you shall be effective unless it is made in writing and accepted in writing by an authorised officer of Epos Now. Epos Now reserves the right to refuse to accept such cancellation or variations or to accept cancellation or variation only subject to such conditions as it considers are warranted according to the circumstances.
  3. Without limiting any other rights or remedies, either party (“Terminating Party”) may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect by providing written notice to the other party (“Defaulting Party”) on or at any time after the occurrence of any of the events specified below:
    1. a breach by the Defaulting Party of its obligations under this Agreement which (if the breach is capable of remedy) the Defaulting Party has failed to remedy within 14 days after receipt of notice in writing from the Terminating Party requiring the Defaulting Party to do so; or
    2. an event, including (or similar in nature to) the following:
      1. the Defaulting Party is unable to pay its debts as they fall due;
      2. the Defaulting Party goes into liquidation either compulsorily (except for the purpose of reconstruction or amalgamation) or voluntarily;
      3. a receiver is appointed in respect of the whole or any part of the Defaulting Party;
      4. a provisional liquidator is appointed to the Defaulting Party or the Defaulting Party enters into a voluntary arrangement or any other composition or compromise with the majority by value of its creditors or has a winding-up order or passes a resolution for the voluntary winding-up or has an administrative receiver appointed or takes steps towards any such event; or
    3. the Defaulting Party suspends, or threatens to suspend, or ceases or threatens to cease to carry on all or a substantial part of its business.
  4. Epos Now may terminate this Agreement with immediate effect if it reasonably believes that you have infringed or will infringe Epos Now’s rights or the rights of a third party.
  5. If this Agreement terminates for any reason, notwithstanding any other provision, Epos Now shall have no obligation to refund you and all charges payable by you to Epos Now under this Agreement will become due and payable immediately. This clause is without prejudice to any right by Epos Now to claim for interest or any other right under this Agreement.
  6. Your data stored within the Epos Now System shall be available for you to download for a period of 30 days from the effective date of termination. After this period, your data shall not be recoverable by or for you and may be deleted by Epos Now.

  1. Pricing

4.1 Current Pricing for all our propositions is set out in Appendix 1.

4.2 We may vary the monthly pricing upon giving you one calendar months’ notice in writing.

4.3 In the event that you are on a fixed term contract and a price increase (or the aggregate of any increases over a rolling 12-month period) is greater than 2% above the current level of inflation set out in the Consumer Prices Index at the date of notice, then you may terminate this agreement upon giving us one calendar months’ notice.

4.4 All sums save where clearly stated to the contrary are exclusive of VAT.

The minimum level of transactions is per rolling 28-day period either (i) at least 75 per cent of your card processing or (ii) process card payments to a minimum of £2,000 (“the Minimum Transaction Level”).

  1. Your responsibilities
    1. You will be responsible for installing the hardware (unless otherwise agreed in writing with Epos Now) and will keep the hardware in the environmental conditions recommended by Epos Now and ensure that the external surfaces, cables and fittings of the hardware are kept in good, clean condition.
    2. You will ensure that the hardware is only used by properly trained staff in accordance with Epos Now’s instructions from time to time. You will ensure that only personnel authorised by Epos Now adjust, modify, configure, maintain, repair, replace or remove any part of the hardware.
    3. You will maintain adequate records of the use, maintenance and malfunction of the hardware and will provide Epos Now with such information and assistance concerning the hardware, its application, use, location and environment as Epos Now may reasonably require to enable it to carry out any support.
    4. You will immediately notify Epos Now if there is any failure of the hardware or the System and will allow Epos Now full and free access to the hardware and all documentation, software, materials and services necessary for the provision of support. You will ensure that relevant trained and experienced staff are available when required by Epos Now to provide Epos Now with information required to diagnose and/or repair the issue.
    5. It is your sole responsibility to regularly operate and verify a proper back-up routine, maintaining all back-up copies in a secure environment.
    6. You undertake to put and keep in place adequate security measures and up-to-date firewalls to protect the Hardware, Software and Systems from any viruses, harmful code or unauthorised access.

    7. You are responsible for ensuring that the login password to the Epos Now Systems remains secure and confidential. You should update their password regularly and ‘remember me’ type functions should not be used on publicly available or shared computers.

 

  1. Internet / Network Requirements
    1. Epos Now’s Products require a reliable and robust connection to the internet / local network to take advantage of all of the online features and benefits. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have an appropriate internet / local network connection in place prior to installation of the Software and to also ensure that the internet connection is maintained correctly and includes an up-to-date firewall. The recommended internet speeds are a minimum 7Mbps download speed and 0.6Mbps upload speed to support up to four till devices. Larger locations / installations will need higher internet speeds as appropriate to the size of installation and business. This speed requirement does not include any additional internet usage required over and above the Epos Now System such as staff or guest networks or other business requirements. Internet speeds and consistencies can be checked by using internet speed test websites or by contacting the applicable internet service provider.
    2. You must provide a separate physical network or a separate V-LAN for Epos Now systems. This must not be shared with other devices, particularly those that cause high volume, high congestion or unpredictable network loads including (but not limited to) guest networks and music or video streaming devices.
    3. You are solely responsible for any connection charges, line rental charges and call charges in relation to any Products.
    4. Whilst Epos Now representatives may provide advice and an indication of the suitability of  your internet / local network connection, it remains your sole responsibility to ensure you have a suitable internet / local network connection both before and after an order is placed. Epos Now is not responsible for any slow responses to its Systems, including where this is caused by your poor internet / local network connection.
    5. Provision of Local Area Network (LAN) infrastructure (e.g. cabling, network switches, WAN router) is the responsibility of you and should be appropriate to the size of business and criticality of the operation.
    6. Where the System is to be used over wifi (e.g. tablets/mobile devices):
      1. You are responsible for the setup, configuration and management of both the wifi infrastructure and your devices. This includes ensuring wifi coverage in required areas and ensuring network dropouts due to wifi roaming are minimised; and
      2. you must acknowledge that wifi is not as robust as a wired network and network dropouts can occur due to wifi coverage, access point roaming, tablet sleep modes as well as other environmental factors. This is not unique to Epos Now Systems and should be considered when selecting a wifi solution.
    7. Epos Now Systems are designed to work offline, but where no network connection (LAN or WAN) is available or the network connection is unreliable, some functionality is reduced.
    8. Where customer devices are used offline for long periods, you must ensure that such devices are regularly (at least every 7 days) connected to the internet to ensure data is synchronised with its servers. All till devices must regularly (at least every 7 days) perform ‘End of Day/Close Till’ operations to ensure that the local data store can be archived to the servers.
  2. Delivery of Hardware
    1. Whilst Epos Now takes reasonable care to ensure the hardware packaging prevents any damage to the hardware in transit, it is your responsibility to check the hardware before you accept the hardware at the time of delivery.
    2. It is your responsibility to document, and notify Epos Now of, any defects in the cosmetic condition of the Hardware within 24 hours of receiving the Hardware.
    3. Provided clause 10.2 has been complied with, in the rare occasion that the hardware is faulty or damaged on arrival, Epos Now will provide you with replacement hardware.
    4. Whilst Epos Now shall use reasonable endeavours to deliver the hardware by the date specified in the order, Epos Now shall not be liable for the delay in delivery from any cause whatsoever and however arising and time shall not be of the essence for delivery.
    5. All deliveries must be signed for by you or your authorised representatives. Epos Now’s third party courier may notify you the timeframe when you should expect the delivery by email and/or text message. It is your responsibility to provide Epos Now with the correct address, email and mobile number to benefit from this service.
    6. It is your responsibility to have an appropriate and authorised person available to sign for the delivery of the Hardware. Epos Now is not responsible for any deliveries that cannot be made due to an authorised person not being available to receive the hardware, or its courier not having access to the delivery location
