Most businesses process 30–70 transactions an hour, and according to Forbes, one hour of downtime can cost over $9,000. That’s why reliable POS connectivity isn't optional; it’s essential.
When a payment terminal freezes or a card won’t process, everything comes to a halt — the line, the orders, and the customer experience.
Every transaction your business processes depends on a live connection between your POS terminals, card readers, payment apps, and the payment networks behind them.
Even a short outage can mean lost sales, frustrated customers, and staff standing idle while your team scrambles to recover. Industry studies estimate that a single hour of downtime can cost a business thousands of dollars in lost revenue and labor.
MERIC's POS Connectivity solution gives your payment systems a dedicated, business-grade path to the internet with automatic failover built in—so the line keeps moving and every transaction has a way through.
Nearly 70% of shoppers say that checkout speed influences their decision to complete a purchase. With 73% of consumers saying they will switch to a competitor after multiple bad experiences. With as little as two negative experiences leading to brand abandonment.
Your POS systems stay online even when a carrier fails. MERIC routers automatically leverage AT&T, Verizon, T-Mobile, and Starlink for seamless connectivity.
Traffic automatically reroutes during outages, protecting your ability to process payments and preventing downtime from disrupting your business.
Hardware arrives pre-configured and ready to use. Plug it in, connect your POS system, and you’re up and running in minutes—no technical setup required.

Consistent system uptime is a direct contributor to both customer satisfaction and revenue stability. When payment terminals, POS systems, and ordering platforms operate without interruption, the service experience remains smooth and transactions continue without delay. Outages, even brief ones, disrupt the customer journey and result in immediate revenue loss. Implementing dependable failover minimizes operational interruptions and preserves both the customer experience and the sales flow that depend on continuous connectivity.
