  • Using LiveCards
    Inspired LiveCard Transactions
    Credit cards can be used to submit a live payment for a cash receipt.  As opposed to externally processed credit card transactions that are processed elsewhere outside of the Inspired system, these "Live" credit card transactions will be processed immediately upon posting, and eliminate the need for other external credit card processors. 

    Your applicable merchant fees will apply accordingly.
        

    Note: Inspired Technology Systems does not save nor store any credit card information on our servers.

    Secure tokens are used instead.  Account tokenization involves completely removing sensitive data and replacing it with a randomly generated value called a token.
