Payment Phone Userguide

Updated by RM

The BCH Payment Phone allows users to make and receive calls through the Secure PCI DSS Level 1 compliant telephone network. The Payment Phone replaces the traditional handset commonly found throughout businesses.

Once the Payment Phone has been downloaded and configured, you should configure it to start with windows. It will run in the background of any Windows 10 operating system.

Making a call

There are 4 ways to make a call:

  1. Copy and paste the number into the input box.
  2. Type the number using your keyboard number pad.
  3. Click the number pad on the screen.
  4. Use the Call Control service on the Agent user portal.

Ending a call

Click End Call at anytime to finish a call.

It is faster and easier to click a button than to physically place the handset back on the cradle. Consequently, it is possible that 'End Call' may be clicked unintentionally, leading to a call being prematurely cut short.

Receiving a call

The caller's number will be displayed and the call can be accepted or rejected.

Dial the extension number or click the extension on the presence screen.

Transferring Callers

Inbound Divert

If you need to divert your inbound calls to another destination you can do so from the Follow Me service on the PP User site. For instance you can add a landline and mobile number, and if you're leaving the house/office then you can either make sure your mobile number is enabled so it rings through to you after your softphone, or you can disable your softphone delivery and have it go straight to your mobile.
