Sprinkle Ease into Your Payments with Shift4.
Mohamed brought a taste of Thailand to New Zealand with Bangkok Rolled Ice Cream in Auckland, and New Zealanders were instantly hooked! But when his previous EFTPOS provider wasn’t as sweet as candy, he decided he needed an EFTPOS solution that was as innovative as his desserts.
That’s where we came in. Mohamed switched to Shift4 to experience deliciously quick and friendly customer service, and a smooth point of sale, making payments as sweet as his treats!
We caught up with Mohamed to learn more about how Shift4 transformed his payment solution from a hassle into a treat.
Bangkok Rolled Ice Cream’s Previous Provider Served A Sundae of Disappointment
Being new to EFTPOS, Mohamed just went with the first EFTPOS provider he found online.
“When I started my business, I didn’t know much about EFTPOS and how it works in New Zealand,” said Mohamed.
“It didn’t fully occur to me to shop around as they seemed fairly forthright and knowledgeable about EFTPOS and didn’t quite bring up the importance of the service element behind the payment solution,” he said.
Mohamed signed up for a contract that locked him in for four years – leaving him in a sticky situation.
“Not only were they expensive on their monthly rental, but the lack of service and support was also appalling,” according to Mohamed. He also recounted spending hours on the phone trying to get hold of their technical support and was charged additional fees every time assistance was provided. Once his contract ended, Mohamed decided to shop around for other EFTPOS providers.
Mohamed's Smooth Transition to Better Payments
“When looking for alternatives, I asked one of my friends who recommended Shift4 to me,” said Mohamed. He was drawn in by Shift4's offer of 12 months of free EFTPOS rental for new customers. Mohamed knew that he wanted POS integration with his EFTPOS, and Shift4 pulled through.
“When I spoke to the rep at Shift4, they explained the whole process to me clearly and I wasn’t quoted any extra charges for the POS integration, unlike other EFTPOS providers,” he said. This sealed the deal for him.
After signing up, our technicians exceeded expectations, tackling initial challenges with his older till system. They coordinated seamlessly with the POS company. The customer service was the cherry on top.
Mohamed said of the experience: “No one asked me for extra money. The team took an impressive amount of ownership of the situation and coordinated with internal and external parties until they got the system going!”
He added, “Really great service, no hidden charges and most of all, they even helped me avoid additional fees that my ISP was wanting to charge us. Thanks guys!”
"It was an absolute piece of cake!"

Mohamed raved about how easy it was to dessert his payment worries with Shift4.
“The sales rep took their time to simplify the process of getting EFTPOS with Shift4, and I was impressed at how easy it was to make the switch.”
He signed the contract at 4pm, and the EFTPOS machine arrived the next day — now that’s a fast serve for smooth payments!
“After calling the service team to help me logon, the Shift4 crew were on the job getting the terminal integrated with my POS system and after a bit of effective communication and coordination, I was ready to go,” said Mohamed.
Shift4's POS Integration is the Sweet Solution You've Been Craving

“The integration with my POS of choice was the most important feature for me as it makes transactions easier and quicker for my business and I am able to serve customers more efficiently.”
“The EFTPOS terminal configuration is also very useful for me to take payments quickly from customers without the need to pass on the terminal to them every time.”
Mohamed’s staff can skip the manual payment hassles and avoid those sticky errors during rush hours. This speedy, error-free setup not only keeps lines moving but also makes end-of-day reconciliation a breeze.
