Overview

This page is intended to guide the user through the process of configuring their newly establish FasCard account in broad details. This page will also provide the user with links to relevant documentation for each step outlined. 

Setup process

The following steps are laid out in CCI's recommended order to assist the user configuring the FasCard account to complete it in a timely and orderly fashion. 

Step 1 – Logging in

When the FasCard account is first opened, user credentials for the system operator will be provided by Card Concepts Inc. Please be sure to check the "Spam/Junk" folders of your email inbox for the email message. 

You must set a password before attempting to log into the Admin site. The email will contain a link to complete this step. 

To learn more about setting up your Admin site account, please visit the FasCard Administration Site page.

Step 2 – Adding locations and location groups

A minimum of one location will need to be manually setup on the Admin site. Any additional locations will need to be added by CCI or by the system operator. 

To learn more about locations and how-to set them up, please visit the FasCard Admin Site - Location Setup guide. 

Step 3 – Adding Satellites to locations

In order for the FasCard readers and kiosks to work, they must be connected to a Satellite Access Point (SAP). The SAP serves as the gateway between the local FasCard hardware (i.e. readers & kiosks) and FasCard server (i.e. Admin site). Each active location must have at least one operational SAP assigned to it in order for this communication process to work. 

Step 4 – Adding user accounts

The system operator will be able to add admin users, managers, and attendants. Any user who is given "Website Privileges" and has a suitable email address assigned to their account will receive access to the Admin site. 

Step 5 – Adding equipment types

Correct configuration of all equipment is required for proper reader to machine operation. 

Step 7 – Configuring the price schedule and features

Once all equipment types have been configured, you can then move onto assigning all available prices and features for the associated equipment types.

Step 6 – Adding machines to locations

Once all equipment types have been configured and pricing has been assigned, all that remains is adding individual machines their designated location. This is done by selecting the pre-created equipment type from earlier and assigning a specific machine number(s) to that equipment type.
