Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

General Questions

What is included in the rental packages?

All rental packages include the hardware (POS devices), professional installation and setup, staff training, product catalogue configuration, ongoing technical support, and hardware replacement if equipment fails. The level of support varies by package.

What areas do you service?

We primarily service Johannesburg and surrounding areas in Gauteng, including Sandton, Midrand, Centurion, Pretoria, Roodepoort, and Johannesburg CBD. For other areas, please contact us to confirm availability.

How quickly can you get me set up?

Once your order is confirmed and payment received, we typically schedule installation within 2-5 business days. The setup process takes 2-4 hours depending on the package complexity.

Rental Packages

What happens at the end of the 24-month rental contract?

You have three options:

  1. Purchase the equipment at the residual value (R300 – R2,000 depending on package)
  2. Continue renting on a month-to-month basis at the same rate
  3. Upgrade to newer equipment with a new 24-month contract
  4. Return the equipment at no additional cost
Can I cancel my rental contract early?

Yes, but early termination fees apply. If you cancel before 12 months, you’ll pay 50% of the remaining contract value. After 12 months, you’ll pay 30% of the remaining contract value. See full terms here.

What if the equipment gets damaged or stolen?

For rental customers, hardware replacement is included if equipment fails due to normal use. However, damage due to negligence, theft, or loss is the customer’s responsibility. We strongly recommend insuring rental equipment. Replacement costs apply for lost or stolen equipment.

Do I need to pay for Yoco's transaction fees separately?

Yes. Yoco’s transaction fees (2.5-2.7% ex. VAT) and monthly connectivity fees (R49-R98/month depending on devices) are paid directly to Yoco and are separate from our rental and support fees.

Can I add more devices later?

Absolutely! You can add additional devices at any time. Add-on devices can be purchased outright or added to your rental contract with adjusted monthly payments.

Support Services

What's included in the monthly support packages?

Support packages include phone and email support during business hours, remote troubleshooting, system updates, product catalogue management, regular system health checks, and on-site visits (depending on package level). Premium packages include after-hours emergency support.

How quickly will you respond to support requests?

Response times vary by package:

  • Basic Support: Within 4 business hours
  • Standard Support: Within 2 business hours
  • Premium Support: Within 1 hour
  • Emergency After-Hours (Premium only): Callback within 2 hours
What if I only need support occasionally?

We offer once-off support sessions at R750 per session (1.5 hours included). Additional time is billed at R500/hour. This is perfect for businesses that don’t need ongoing support.

Do you provide training for new staff members?

Yes! Training is included in support packages. Standard packages include 2 hours per quarter, Premium includes 3 hours per quarter. Additional training can be purchased at R500/hour.

What happens if I need support outside business hours?

Premium Support packages include after-hours emergency support with a 2-hour callback guarantee. For other packages, emergency after-hours support is available at R1,000 per callout plus R500/hour.

Technical Questions

Will my existing product data transfer to the Yoco system?

Yes, we can import your existing product catalogue from spreadsheets, CSV files, or other POS systems. Initial setup includes up to 50-150 items depending on your package. Additional items can be added as needed.

Can I access my sales data remotely?

Yes, Yoco POS provides cloud-based reporting accessible from any device via the Yoco web portal or mobile app. You can view real-time sales, inventory levels, and staff performance from anywhere.

Does the system work during load shedding?

The Yoco Counter tablet has backup battery power for a few hours. Khumo and Khumo Print devices have all-day battery life. However, if your internet goes down, card processing may be affected. We recommend having a backup internet solution (mobile hotspot) for critical periods.

Can I use the system offline?

Limited functionality is available offline. You can still ring up sales and accept cash payments, but card processing requires internet connectivity. Data syncs automatically when internet connection is restored.

How do you handle software updates?

Software updates are included in all packages. Updates are typically performed remotely during off-hours to minimize disruption. We notify you in advance of any updates that require downtime.

Financial Questions

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept EFT, credit card payments, and for rental contracts, we can set up monthly debit order agreements. Setup fees must be paid upfront before installation.

Is there VAT on top of the prices shown?

All prices quoted exclude VAT. 15% VAT will be added to all invoices.

Can I claim the rental fees as a business expense?

Yes, rental fees are typically tax-deductible business expenses. Please consult with your accountant or tax advisor for specific advice related to your business.

Do you offer discounts for multiple locations?

Yes! If you’re setting up POS systems for 3+ locations, contact us for volume discounting on both equipment and support packages.

How do you handle software updates?

Software updates are included in all packages. Updates are typically performed remotely during off-hours to minimize disruption. We notify you in advance of any updates that require downtime.

After Installation

What if I'm not happy with the service?

We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee on rental contracts. If you’re not satisfied within the first 30 days, you can cancel with a full refund of rental fees paid (setup fees are non-refundable as service has been rendered).

Can I upgrade or downgrade my support package?

Yes, you can change your support package at any time with 30 days’ notice. Changes take effect at the start of the next billing cycle.

Who do I contact if I have a problem?

For technical support, call us at 087 700 8761 or email [email protected]. For billing inquiries, email [email protected]. Premium customers have a dedicated support line.
