Reading Cards
Cards can be read in three different ways; these are explained below.
Magnetic Stripe Reader
Place the card with the magnetic stripe facing down and towards the
screen as illustrated, run the edge of the card along the bottom of the
card swipe slot on the right of your terminal. You should swipe the card
in one continuous movement and at an even speed.
Alternatively, cards may be swiped through the card swipe slot on your
terminal.
If you see the prompt
BAD SWIPE
, check the orientation of the card and
try again.
If a chip card is swiped, your terminal will request that you insert the
same card into the chip card reader by displaying the prompt
USE CHIP
READER
