- ## [![Efficiently Manage Your Multi-Location Dealership](https://blog.payjunction.com/hubfs/BLOG/FEATURED%20IMAGES/manage-multiple-locations.svg) Efficiently Manage Your Multi-Location Dealership Large, multi-location auto dealerships operate complex business hierarchies, with headquarters overseeing multiple automotive brands, locations, departments, and staffing roles. This operating model presents unique challenges with accepting, managing, and analyzing payment activity. Typically, each location has dedicated merchant services and bank accounts. ![Picture of Ursula Librizzi](https://blog.payjunction.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Ursula_Librizzi.jpg?width=48&height=48&name=Ursula_Librizzi.jpg) Ursula Librizzi 8/13/2024 READ MORE](https://blog.payjunction.com/manage-multiple-locations)

- ## [![Virtual Terminal Credit Card Processing: A Complete Guide](https://blog.payjunction.com/hubfs/BLOG/FEATURED%20IMAGES/virtual-terminals-everything-to-know.svg) Virtual Terminal Credit Card Processing: A Complete Guide What Is a Virtual Terminal? A Merchant Services Virtual Terminal turns any browser-connected device – desktop, laptop, tablet or smartphone – into a cloud-based credit card terminal. Unlike a stand-alone credit card terminal and paper receipts, a Virtual Terminal allows you to accept payments from customers in person, over the phone, online and via mailed or electronic invoices. Transaction details are paired with customer information and stored digitally, giving you quick access to payment history. And you can access records and conduct business from anywhere: in the office, at home and on the go. ![Picture of PayJunction Team](https://blog.payjunction.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PayJunction%20Logo%20Cropped%20-%20Vertical%20Grey.png?width=48&height=48&name=PayJunction%20Logo%20Cropped%20-%20Vertical%20Grey.png) PayJunction Team 2/22/2022 READ MORE](https://blog.payjunction.com/virtual-terminal-credit-card-processing)
- ## [![Streamline Payments and Improve Cash Flow with PayJunction’s Invoices Feature](https://blog.payjunction.com/hubfs/BLOG/FEATURED%20IMAGES/remote-payments-invoices-benefits.svg) Streamline Payments and Improve Cash Flow with PayJunction’s Invoices Feature The COVID-19 crisis has resulted in the rise of telephone and video appointments, curbside pickup, and other practices that support social distancing. Business owners who primarily engage with clients in person—from retailers, to specialty medical practices, dentists, veterinarians and auto repair services—are implementing solutions to allow staff to safely interact with customers. One way to do this is to process payments away from an in-person checkout counter by sending customers an invoice payment request for an amount due. ![Picture of PayJunction Team](https://blog.payjunction.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PayJunction%20Logo%20Cropped%20-%20Vertical%20Grey.png?width=48&height=48&name=PayJunction%20Logo%20Cropped%20-%20Vertical%20Grey.png) PayJunction Team 12/1/2020 READ MORE](https://blog.payjunction.com/remote-payments-invoices-benefits)
- ## [![How to Enable Secure Manual Key Entry Using a PayJunction Smart Terminal](https://blog.payjunction.com/hubfs/BLOG/FEATURED%20IMAGES/enable-secure-key-entry.svg) How to Enable Secure Manual Key Entry Using a PayJunction Smart Terminal Welcome to PJ University, where we teach you how to use PayJunction like a pro. Today, we’d like to introduce an enhanced security feature: secure manual key entry. This new feature has two benefits: 1) it reduces the chance of hackers gaining access to cardholder data, and 2) it simplifies the annual Payment Card Industry (PCI) compliance validation process, which varies depending on the types of networks, systems and processes you have in place. ![Picture of PayJunction Team](https://blog.payjunction.com/hs-fs/hubfs/PayJunction%20Logo%20Cropped%20-%20Vertical%20Grey.png?width=48&height=48&name=PayJunction%20Logo%20Cropped%20-%20Vertical%20Grey.png) PayJunction Team 7/23/2020 READ MORE](https://blog.payjunction.com/enable-secure-key-entry)
- ## [![How Veterinary Practice Managers Can Streamline Reporting](https://blog.payjunction.com/hubfs/BLOG/FEATURED%20IMAGES/veterinary-reporting.svg) How Veterinary Practice Managers Can Streamline Reporting Keeping a pulse on your veterinary practice’s financials should be as easy as checking a patient’s medical record. Yet, most Merchant Service Providers don’t offer intuitive credit card processing systems to streamline the work put into financial reporting. Luckily, there is software that offers an all-in-one solution to simplify and streamline reporting efforts for you and your team. Say hello to the Virtual Terminal. ![Picture of Ursula Librizzi](https://blog.payjunction.com/hs-fs/hubfs/Ursula_Librizzi.jpg?width=48&height=48&name=Ursula_Librizzi.jpg) Ursula Librizzi 1/16/2020 READ MORE](https://blog.payjunction.com/veterinary-reporting)
