Working Better Together: What happened when The EPOS Bureau met Fetchify
The philosophy of Working Better Together is at the heart of everything we do here at ClearCourse.
Sometimes that can be as simple as two individuals collaborating effectively.
At other times, it can be about how we make the businesses we bring into the group even better than they were previously.
And, on other occasions, it can be how our businesses work together to achieve something that wouldn’t have been possible without the other.
That happened recently when our group CTO Andrew Gore introduced the teams from retail EPOS brand The EPOS Bureau and address lookup business Fetchify to explore opportunities to work together.
Here’s what happened.
The initial conversation
A kick-off call took place with Jonathan Crozier, Head of Software Development at The EPOS Bureau, and Chris Mills, Partner Manager at Fetchify, to discuss a potential address lookup feature within the EPOS software.
Following the kick-off call, The EPOS Bureau created a trial Fetchify account and used it to integrate with the Fetchify API.
A Working Better Together outcome
By taking advice from Fetchify and following the straightforward API documentation, The EPOS Bureau could develop the integration with minimal involvement from Fetchify.
Clients of The EPOS Bureau can find the correct street address when signing up new loyalty customers using the Fetchify Postcode Lookup API.
Clients now have the ability to quickly and easily sign up new loyalty scheme customers at the point of sale, without needing to spend lots of time manually keying in address details for their account.
Working Better Together – an ideal to live by
There are so many opportunities for us all to work better together, and this is a great example of how two of our ClearCourse businesses have joined forces to provide a better solution than was previously available.
By being open to the opportunities that collaboration can bring, our businesses can evolve, improve and ultimately provide their customers with a better solution – which is what we all want to achieve.
Jonathan says, “Being part of the same group allows companies like The EPOS Bureau and Fetchify to work together very closely and achieve great results quickly.
“The shared goal of adding value to our products and improving the end-user experience based on feedback is invaluable.”
And that’s just one example of the work happening behind the scenes at ClearCourse, to help make our solutions better – together.
