Sharp EIT: An evolved payment ecosystem for enhanced experiences.

Sharp EIT, a leader in document management, managed IT services, and display solutions, recently embarked on a mission to revolutionise its payment systems and elevate customer experience. The business sought a payment solution that would streamline transactions for staff while reducing friction for its valued customers. Explore how Sharp EIT achieved remarkable improvements in efficiency and customer experience by establishing a partnership that aligned with its community-focused values.

A reliable business enriched by its community-minded values.

With a trusted reputation spanning over two decades as a subsidiary of the globally recognised household brand Sharp, Sharp EIT is the go-to supplier of office solutions for businesses in Australia. Its comprehensive services include hardware, managed IT services, and displays.

This unique spirit sets Sharp EIT apart from competitors and fosters a strong sense of community among its customers, suppliers, and stakeholders.

The problem: a need for a streamlined payment solution

Despite its longstanding success, Sharp EIT repeatedly faced challenges with its previous payment provider, causing ongoing frustration among staff and adversely impacting its customer experience.

Manual processes were time-consuming and left a wide margin for errors, while presenting a risk to the company’s reputation.

To uphold its gold standard of superior service, Sharp EIT needed an efficient, secure, and user-friendly payment solution that would enhance customer satisfaction.

The Solution: Till’s Payment Links

After evaluating multiple vendors, Sharp EIT found the perfect fit with Till, driven by shared values, a commitment to growth and a mutual desire to make payments more seamless for the end customer.
