Swazzy Retail Support Bundles — Service Level Agreement (SLA) Version 1.0
Applies only to Swazzy’s RetailSupport, RetailSupport+, and Retail Support Max bundles. Where this SLA conflicts with Swazzy’s general ITMA/SLA, this Retail SLA prevails for bundle-covered services.
1) Overview & Eligibility
The Retail Support Bundles provide 24/7 unlimited onsite & remote IT support for retail stores, priced per store. Bundles are designed for customers taking internet, phone, and related services through Swazzy. If a store uses third-party telco or voice, Swazzy provides best-effort vendor liaison; guarantees and restoration targets may be affected.
Term is month-to-month unless otherwise stated. Either party may terminate with 30 days’ written notice (see Section 14).
2) Retail Support Bundles
| Bundle | Store Count | Highlights |
|---|---|---|
| RetailSupport | 0–45 stores | 24/7 coverage; unlimited remote & onsite (Metro); RMM on supported devices |
| RetailSupport+ | 50–95 stores | All of RetailSupport + priority vendor-queue escalation; within-day P1/P2 progress checks |
| Retail Support Max | 100+ stores | 24/7 “4×8” for P1: Response ≤ 4h & Restoration ≤ 8h (incl. onsite in Metro as needed) |
Retail Support Max headline: “24/7 Unlimited Onsite & Remote Support (4 × 8 Response time).”

- Continuous user training or operational staffing.
Excluded work can be delivered via projects or Optional Schedules (see Section 9).
5) Incident Service Levels
5.1 Priority Matrix (examples)
- P1 — Critical: Store cannot transact; POS cluster offline; payment terminals down; network down; widespread Wi-Fi failure; full register outage with no workaround.
- P2 — High: Major function impaired with workaround (one register down; one network segment degraded; intermittent EFTPOS).
- P3 — Medium: Localised issue affecting small set of devices/users; performance issues with workaround.
- P4 — Low: Cosmetic queries and minor configuration changes.
5.2 Baseline Targets (all bundles)
| Priority | Initial Response (BH) | Initial Response (AH) | Target Restoration (BH) | Target Restoration (AH) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| P1 | ≤ 4 hours (Guaranteed) | ≤ 1 hour (Target) | ≤ 8 hours (Target) | Next BH or ≤ 8 hours if onsite feasible |
| P2 | ≤ 4 hours | Next Trading Window | ≤ 1 business day | Next BH |
| P3 | ≤ 8 hours | Next Trading Window | ≤ 3 business days | Next BH |
| P4 | ≤ 1 business day | Next Trading Window | ≤ 5 business days | Next BH |
5.3 Tier Enhancements
| Bundle | Enhancements |
|---|---|
| RetailSupport | Baseline targets in 5.2. |
| RetailSupport+ | Baseline + priority vendor-queue escalation and within-day progress checks on P1/P2. |
| Retail Support Max | 24/7 “4×8” for P1 (Guaranteed): Response ≤ 4h and Restoration ≤ 8h around-the-clock, incl. onsite in Metro as needed. SWAT coordination during multi-site incidents. |
Notes: a) “Restoration” may be a workaround restoring trading while root cause is pursued. b) Targets assume RMM agent on affected devices and reasonable client cooperation. c) When vendor action is required, Swazzy manages liaison; timers pause during vendor wait times, while we maintain pressure and updates.
6) Service Request Targets (non-incident)
| Type | Acknowledge | Delivery Target |
|---|---|---|
| User/device setup | ≤ 1 business day | ≤ 3 business days (earlier if urgent & feasible) |
| POS config changes | ≤ 1 business day | ≤ 2 business days (change window permitting) |
| Wi-Fi/Network tuning | ≤ 1 business day | ≤ 3 business days (CAB approval if risky) |
| Reports / extracts | ≤ 1 business day | ≤ 5 business days |
| Bulk changes (10+ stores) | Plan agreed | Per rollout schedule |
7) Onsite Service, Dispatch & Areas
- Unlimited Onsite (Metro): Included for covered incidents.
- Dispatch Guidance (P1): Metro target arrival ≤ 4h during BH where onsite is required; regional/remote is best-effort with ETAs and options (loaners/courier swaps).
- Safety & Access: Client ensures safe access during trading and after-hours; timers may pause if access is unavailable.
- Proof of Work: Visit notes with actions and next steps are provided.
- Travel & Logistics: Travel inside Metro included; outside Metro billed at cost unless covered by an optional schedule.
8) POS Support Framework
- Vendor Landscape: Support for common POS ecosystems (e.g., Lightspeed, Square, Oracle/Micros, Redcat) plus peripherals; Swazzy liaises with vendors/acquirers where authorised.
- Escalation & Recovery: Triage → contain → restore trading (workaround) → root cause → harden; known-good images/configs used for rapid rebuilds where available.
- Integrations: CRM/ERP/loyalty touchpoints supported for configuration and connection health; complex mapping or custom development is project scope.
- PCI & Payment Security: Swazzy does not store cardholder data. Client remains responsible for PCI DSS compliance; Swazzy provides best-effort alignment and vendor coordination.
9) Optional Schedules (Add-Ons)
- Schedule A — 24/7 Dedicated SWAT line & comms room for major incidents.
- Schedule B — Regional travel pool & spares logistics (courier swaps, shelf spares, loaners).
- Schedule C — Enhanced restoration tiers (e.g., P1 ≤ 2h onsite Metro) with dedicated on-call coverage.
- Schedule D — Store rollout projects (new openings, refits, cabling, AP surveys).
- Schedule E — Advanced reporting & analytics (POS telemetry, trend analysis).
10) RMM & Onboarding Requirements
- All covered endpoints must run Swazzy’s RMM agent (Windows/macOS where supported).
- Network devices should be manageable (SNMP/API) or Swazzy-approved models.
- Initial site survey and asset inventory per store; baselines captured (POS model, printers, network, ISP).
- Standard store runbook created (contacts, trading hours, access, critical dependencies).
- Go-live acceptance: test restore paths for POS/printing/network failover where feasible.
11) Customer Responsibilities
- Provide store contacts and access (including after-hours if 24/7 support expected).
- Maintain valid vendor support contracts where required (POS, acquirer).
- Maintain agreed spares (receipt printers, scanners, APs, cables, power packs).
- Report incidents promptly with impact and store details.
- Avoid unauthorised changes that reduce supportability (rogue APs, unknown routers).
- Ensure legal use and licensing of all software and hardware.
12) Service Credits (per store)
| Trigger | Credit |
|---|---|
| P1 BH Response exceeded guaranteed window (Sec. 5.2) | 5% of that store’s monthly fee |
| P1 Restoration exceeded target by > 4 hours (BH) | 5% of that store’s monthly fee |
| Three (3) or more P1 breaches in a calendar month | +10% of that store’s monthly fee |
Credits must be claimed within 10 business days after month-end and apply to the next invoice. Credits are not liquidated damages; total credits capped at 25% of the affected store’s monthly fee per month. Timers pause for client access/approvals, vendor shipment, or circumstances outside Swazzy’s control.
13) Security, Privacy & Data
- Endpoint/network hygiene: patching, MFA on admin tools, least-privilege access.
- Data protection aligned with Australian Privacy Principles; Swazzy does not store card data.
- Incident handling: contain → notify store contact → restore → report; ticketing captures timestamps and vendor references.
14) Term, Suspension & Termination
- Term: Month-to-month unless otherwise agreed. Either party may terminate with 30 days’ written notice.
- Suspension: For non-payment, unsafe site conditions, or repeated breach of responsibilities.
- Handover: On termination, Swazzy provides reasonable handover (runbooks, credentials via secure process).
15) Liability & Insurance

- To the extent permitted by law, Swazzy is not liable for indirect or consequential loss.
- Where liability cannot be excluded, it is limited to re-supply of the service or the cost of re-supply.
- Swazzy maintains appropriate professional and cyber liability insurance. Nothing limits rights under Australian Consumer Law.
