Program |
Cyber Monitor includes a Loyalty/Rewards system,
seamlessly integrated into the existing billing system. With the Cyber
Monitor Loyalty/Rewards Program, your customers can earn loyalty points for
each time-interval spent or item/service purchased, which can then be
redeemed for free computer use or other goods. |

|
Multi-site Consolidation
System |
Now, with the new multi-site consolidation system your customers
will be able to use a single customer account (prepaid card) in all
your internet cafes. The billing data and the customer account
balance will be consolidated through a central server to all your
local sites. Each local site operates autonomously with its own
local server and a local database which means the site will be
operational even if the connection with the central server is
broken, resulting in a very high availability. Once the connection
with the central server is reestablished all changes will be
automatically synchronized.
