Recommended Browsers
Mozilla Firefox is the recommended browser for use with the CruzPay system for both PC and Mac. You can download Mozilla Firefox here.
PC For PCs, Firefox is recommended over Internet Explorer (IE) because IE has somewhat longer load times when using CruzPay.
Mac For Macs, Firefox is recommended over Safari because Safari does not allow pop-up windows to be permitted from specific websites only. You are welcome to use Safari if you choose, but you will need to disable pop-up window blocking if you will be printing timesheets from CruzPay.
