PERFORMING FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS ON THE MONERIS MOBILE 8200

USING THE MOBILE 8200

The Moneris Mobile 8200 consists of 3 main parts:

• An all-in-one, wireless terminal
• A rechargeable battery
• A communications-and-charge base

The all-in-one terminal and pinpad means that both you and your
customer enter information on the terminal so you will need to 
pass the terminal back and forth.
NOTE:

Some transactions, e.g., a Credit Purchase without Tip, do 
not have customer prompts so you will not need to pass 
the terminal.

This wireless, handheld terminal runs on a rechargeable battery 
and connects to a communications base using wireless technology.
This means that you can take the Mobile 8200 terminal to your 
customer.

The communications-and-charge base connects to up to seven (7) 
terminals via wireless communications and to the Moneris host via 
Ethernet communications. It also charges Mobile 8200 batteries.
A charge-only base is also available to charge batteries.
