If you were to use EverLogic without Global Payments, you would need to process your customer's payment through a stand-alone device. After, you need to key the card information manually into EverLogic for your accounting. This process can take a few minutes rather than a few seconds.

Additionally, when you manually enter card information, there's the possibility that there could be discrepancies. These discrepancies can lead to further confusion in your accounting. This is why we strongly encourage our customers to get Global Payments along with EverLogic.
Global Payments also provides detailed reports that will help you find any discrepancies quickly rather than trying to track down the issue yourself with no guide.

Ultimately, like any other integration, Global Payments is a time saver. The more time you save, the more money you will save as well.
Yes, believe it or not, you have another option. Let’s list the three options you have for merchant service/payment processing.
The term “gateway” as defined by Techopedia, is a data communication device that provides a remote network with connectivity to a host network. In other words, you can keep your existing merchant service provider and pay GPI a fee to integrate with EverLogic DMS.

Some of the benefits included in terms of product functionality when using GPI as a partner include:
EverLogic has partnered with Global Payments Integrated since our inception, though, they have not always been called Global Payments Integrated. We started our partnership with Cayan. Cayan was then acquired by TSYS, which stands for Total System Services and now TSYS is a Global Payments Company. TSYS merged with Global Payments Inc., a leading worldwide provider of payments technology and software solutions, in 2019.

Under the Global Payments brand, the Integrated channel that operates under OpenEdge has been combined with the integrated channel of TSYS resulting in the formation of one of the industry’s most established and innovative providers of payment products and services. This new company has been rebranded as Global Payments Integrated. If you would like to see some customer testimonials from GPI, click here.
It's understandable if you are not ready to move to Global Payments. We believe our customers should be allowed to use whatever they think helps their business be the most successful, regardless of whether we integrate with that provider.
However, because we do integrate with Global Payments Integrated, we do highly recommend them when you sign up for EverLogic. You can quickly process your payments in a matter of seconds rather than run the card with a different provider and then manually key the transaction into the software.
