Challenge
Like many businesses, during the Covid-19 pandemic Fujifilm's pivoted their operations to support customers remotely. A key challenge their Customer Service team faced was the inefficiency in their existing payment collection process, which relied heavily on bank transfers and phone-based payments. These methods were time-consuming and inefficient, particularly under the new remote working conditions.
Results
The implementation of Verifone Virtual Terminal significantly improved Fujifilm's payment collection process. The customer service team could now collect payments over the phone before processing orders, leading to faster order processing and delivery. The solution also provided detailed transaction reports, enhancing overall productivity and customer satisfaction.

Fujifilm is a renowned distributor of photographic and printing supplies, catering to both consumer and business needs.The Challenge
Like many businesses, during the Covid-19 pandemic the team at Fujifilm had to quickly pivot their operations to seamlessly provide support to their customers under new restrictions. This came with several challenges, especially considering the team was working remotely, making it difficult to learn new technology and processes. The primary challenge was the inefficiency in their existing payment collection process, which relied on time-consuming bank transfers and phone-based payments. Their physical EFTPOS terminal on site was impractical under pandemic restrictions, further complicating the situation.

This solution allows merchants to efficiently take card-not-present, mail-order, and telephone order (MOTO) payments through an online payment form on Verifone Central, our free merchant portal. Carolina from the Customer Services team at Fujifilm shared, 'We needed simple, quick, and easy - and that’s what we got.' This Virtual Terminal allowed Fujifilm to streamline transactions and refunds securely, which was crucial for maintaining high levels of customer satisfaction.
