This guide is essential for anyone managing a club's financial operations, as it simplifies the process of billing members for overdrafts on their EPOS Purses. By enabling the EPOS Balance Sweep feature, clubs can streamline financial transactions, eliminating the need for members to manually top up their accounts.
- The EPOS Balance Sweep feature allows you to bill members for the amounts that they have gone overdrawn on their EPOS Purses. This removes the need for members to top up their EPOS Purses and can pay their overdraft off via a standard bill.
