The standard Electronic Voucher Vending Solution consists out of the following modules within OnlineOnly:

• User Management & Permissions Manager – These modules allow the setting up of system users, vending users etc with their associated permissions in terms of which modules they may access in the system and what roles they may play on the defined system areas.
• Voucher Management – This module allows the definition of voucher types, the management of voucher type margins and the loading of stock. The definition of voucher types includes, PIN based vouchers, 3rd party Products or interactive products.
• Group Management – This module allows for the definition of device groupings, the products these group may sell and the margin allocation for each grouping level. The number of group levels are unlimited. Groups can have their own stock, or share parent group stock.
• Device Management – This module allows the setup of vending users/devices and messaging to the vending users/devices. Each vending user/device has their own wallet which may be used for sales or repayments.
