The movement of money sits at the core of every business, and is the starting point for everything from cashflow, to inventory, to employee management and more. An effective business system is made up of individual elements that helps the business achieve its goals. It’s never been more important to streamline these elements and make more time for the things that really matter; like growing your business. As businesses emerge from the pandemic, many have found gaps in their operations, and a good business system can be the key to their recovery.

AIB Merchant Services (AIBMS) is your business partner, with a connected ecosystem of features and integrations that make managing your business as smooth as it can be.
Taking Payment
Clover is a payment solution that’s built for busy businesses. The large customer friendly interface makes taking payments simple and frictionless, but there’s more. Clover also provides real-time dashboard reporting so you can see exactly how your business is doing, anytime, anywhere. It can be your full Point of Sale, simply take payment, or it can be integrated with another existing till system (Clover mini and Flex as payment terminals only)*.
Other features include Google Pay and Apple Pay, unparalleled employee access controls, gift card processing, and simple to implement loyalty solutions.
The last 18 months have increased the need for businesses to expand the channels through which they take payment, and this need for flexibility looks set to continue. AIB Merchant Services offers an extensive suite of solutions that help businesses to trade online and from afar, with AIBMS’ Authipay. Along with integrating payments to your website with Authipay, you can use its facilities to generate one-time payment links or take payment over the phone in a secure and compliant way.
