STS Vending Management and Distribution System

STS Vending Management and Distribution System

The Prepaid STS Vending Management Suite is designed to be easy to operate and maintain. Easy-to-use menus guide the user through the steps needed to perform functions quickly and efficiently. Fully compliant STS token generation is complimented by an extensive and robust application programming interface that allows all functionality to be accessed without needing a user interface shell. This is typically used to extend the system and integrate to 3rd party voucher distribution systems, adding flexibility and exceptional transaction processing capability.
