This month's release introduces new features and enhancements across Finance Hub and Storefront.
Standalone Terminal Payments (Finance Hub)
Payment terminals now support a standalone mode, offering a faster, more flexible way to collect payment at the counter. Invoice numbers and amounts can be entered directly on the device without opening PMC first, making it easier to serve walk-in and cash-and-carry customers. Surcharges still apply in this mode, and payouts are processed the same way as other terminal payments.
Short Pay (Finance Hub)
Distributors can now offer the ability to short pay in the app. When enabled, users can partially pay an invoice by entering the amount they want to pay, or go through a credit request flow that lets them select specific unpaid items and submit the credit request alongside the payment. Short pay is off by default, and distributors can choose which mode to enable by contacting their Pepper representative.
Holiday Override Fulfillment Dates (Storefront)
Distributors can now set holiday override dates in the Pepper admin console to keep operators ordering through every holiday week. These overrides open a replacement delivery day when the regular schedule is interrupted, for example offering Tuesday delivery in place of a Memorial Day Monday. Each override carries its own cutoff time, fulfillment type, and label, and can apply to all customers, specific customer groups, or individual customers. Distributors interested in enabling Holiday Overrides should reach out to their Pepper representative.
