You might. Some states have magnetic stripes on the backs of them - for these you'll need a magnetic swipe reader (credit card reader) - we recommend a 3 track version (2 tracks readers work too but 3 track readers give you more information). Some states have two dimensional barcodes on them - for these you'll need a 2D barcode reader. Some states have both.
PLEASE NOTE - a 2 dimmensional barcode scanner is NOT the same as a traditional barcode scanner (they are 1 dimmensional scanners), these are special types of barcode scanners like the Honeywell 4600R as an example. If equipmented is needed it can also be purchased from RITE which will come pre-configured to work properly with our programs. If you need additional information on this topic email support@rite.us. If equipment is not purchase through RITE, we would be happy to assist in the setup and configuration, billed at our standard hourly rate.
With both barcode scanners AND MSRs, you must use keyboard wedge style interaction with the POS station, OPOS scanners or MSRs are not supported. It will also not work with encrypted MSR readers.
This program was built to utilize American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) standards for both Magnetic stripe and 2 dimensional barcodes. These standards were adopted by the US and other governments for using in Driver's Licesnse and state ID for electronic identification. Though there is a standard in place, it is still up to each state to make the final document so from state to state, there can be discrepencies. Long story short, it should work with your state's ID. We have certified our programs to work with over 24 states and Canadian provinces. To see if your state has been tested and certified with our products please check out our list.
If a particular license or ID has not been certified we will happily look into the matter, with your help, and add the functionaly, free of charge. Just ask us how.
Yes. You can set different cashiers to have different permissions - an example would be, the owner of the store would never be prompted to swipe an ID, long time employees would be prompted to swipe an ID when certain products are being sold but could override it, and new cashiers would be forced to swipe an ID and could NOT proceed unless a manager came and overrode it for them.
Many other configuration options are available - watch the demos or contact us for more information.
Yes it potentially can. If you use it with our Express Customer Setup program you can capture customer information and verify age in a single scan of a license - the two programs integrate seamlessly. Click here for more information on the Express Customer Setup program.
Absolutely. RITE Age Verification can be setup to store whether or not a cashier swipes an ID which later can be reported on through RMS's detailed sales report. We use the robust reporting engine to allow the user to sort and group sales and cashiers on the basis of ID's they verified.
RITE programs are licensed on the basis of the number of computers you will install it on. So - each computer you install it on will ask you for a license key.
EXAMPLE 1: I have 5 POS stations and want to install RITE Age Verification on 3 of them - you would need 3 keys.
EXAMPLE 2: I have 2 POS stations and 2 back office machines - I want to install RITE Advanced Purchase Order on 1 of my back office machines - you would need 1 key.
After you place your order a RITE representative will email you license keys along with a receipt for purchase and instructions on how to contact our support team if help is required.
