Signature Authorisation
The preferred method of card payment authorisation in Australia is PIN. However, in certain
circumstances the terminal will prompt for a signature. In these cases, the terminal will display
the following screens:
$10.00 KEY PIN
Press ENTER here to bypass PIN for a signature.
NOTE:
Only some cards will allow the terminal to bypass PIN. If
only PIN is accepted, then the terminal will beep and this
screen will remain until a PIN is entered.
PROCESSING
PLEASE WAIT
Terminal status is displayed.
SIGNATURE
REQUIRED
The POS system prints a signature record.
Have the
customer sign this and compare it to the signature on
the reverse of the customer’s card.
