Moneris® Core Terminals Gift Card Program Reference Guide 

Navigating the terminal for gift card transactions 

Review the following navigation information for using the Gift Card program on your Moneris terminal.  

 

Some gift card transactions are integrated into the main 

Transactions

 menu. This means you don’t have to 

go into the 

Moneris Gift

 menu to perform them. Simply begin the transaction as you would for any card. At 

the “Swipe or enter Gift card” prompt, the terminal will recognize when a gift card has been swiped by the 

customer. The integrated gift transactions include:  

 

Purchase 

 

Refund 

 

Void 

 

Balance Inquiry 

 

All gift card transactions can be performed from the Moneris Gift menu. This menu has additional functions 

which are not integrated into the main Transactions menu, such as gift card activation/load and 

deactivation. To access the Moneris Gift menu, start at the Main menu, tap 

Transactions

Additional 

transactions

, then tap 

Moneris Gift

.  

Note:

 If you wish to manually enter a gift card number, you must start the transaction from the Moneris Gift 

menu. 

On-screen buttons 

The screen of your terminal (or on the optional external PIN pad) is touch sensitive, like a smartphone. You can 

move around the application and choose options by touching the appropriate element on screen. Here are the 

most common icons and buttons that you should be familiar with.
