Authorization

Authorizing a sale verifies that the funds are available. The entire process takes place on your computer screen, without external equipment. With a keystroke and a swipe of the card, your transaction time is drastically reduced.

Voids and Returns

Voids and returns are easy! By setting a credit card transaction to the Void status, the credit card processor will not submit the transaction to the authorization service. When you use the return feature, the credit card authorizer confirms that the customer’s account will be credited. Voids are noted with a strikethrough line through the transaction and returns show the amount returned in red on your transaction screen.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the CVD number?

The CVD number is not embossed like the actual card number and is always the final group of numbers printed on the back signature panel of the card (for American Express card holders the CVD number is on the front of the card).

Can I reprint a transaction receipt?

Yes. You can select and print a single authorized transaction record. Your customers will feel secure because their credit card number is not displayed in its entirety, only the last four digits of the card number will be displayed when accessing transactions.

Can I still take credit card payments over the phone?

Sure. Taking payments over the phone for retail purchases, gift certificates or even just pre-paying for a service is even easier with credit card integration. You can create a ticket and process the credit card on one screen.

When should I settle a batch?

Settling the batch actually charges or directs the credit card processing system to fulfill a credit transaction including voids and returns. You want to be sure to settle your credit card batch everyday.

Can I view a settled batch?

Yes. Settled batches are easily accessible and sorted by date. Locating a specific transaction from a settled batch is simple.
