Yoco has today announced the largest product release in its history at Yoco Next: Digital Product Showcase – an online event highlighting the company’s vision for the future of small business commerce.
Celebrating its 10th anniversary, the company is moving beyond the brand of being the “blue card machine” company, into an all-in-one digital commerce platform.
“For too long, small business owners have faced the impossible choice between running their businesses or growing them,” said Carl Wazen, Yoco Co-founder. “Our expanded ecosystem eliminates this dilemma by giving entrepreneurs the tools to save time, save money, and gain the clarity they need to thrive in today’s challenging economy.”
The showcase features over 50 product innovations and updates, including:
· Yoco has added Google Pay to its online checkout, enabling fast, 1-click payments through websites and social media for the 2.6 million South Africans using Google Pay.
· Yoco Counter - a fully integrated point of sale system that combines a custom-built widescreen tablet, free point of sale software, and Yoco’s Neo Touch card machine.
· Yoco’s new iOS widgets allow merchants to view real-time sales directly from their iPhone lock screen.
· Yoco has expanded its reporting, and analytics tools help merchants track sales, inventory, and staff performance across multiple locations and platforms from a mobile or web app.
The upgraded Yoco ecosystem is available immediately for businesses of all sizes.
“What sets Yoco apart is how seamlessly we integrate payments, point of sale, and cash flow tools. We’ve built an intuitive platform where every piece enhances the next, creating a system that grows with our merchants,” concluded Wazen.
