For Newsagents: Other Requirements

Getting the most from your XchangeIT Link membership requires a) a POS system that is carefully chosen and well maintained, and b) good in-store procedures. In addition:

1. You must download and install the new Newsagent Client. This will be available from our web site and features a much-enhanced user interface.
2. The PC that runs your POS system must operate (at a minimum) Microsoft Windows 2000 SP4 with .NET 2.0. To find out if your PC meets these requirements please contact your IT provider.
3. Broadband internet access will significantly enhance your experience. The new XchangeIT will operate over a dial-up connection however not all features are fully supported.
4. In-store procedures become increasingly important including scanning all sales for participating distributors; scanning all subagent transfers in/out; and completing end-of-day procedures at the end of every day.
