Transaction guidelines
To process financial transactions, follow these general guidelines.
1.
Make sure you are connected to Moneris. Look for the presence of the Wi-Fi icons and check the signal
strength indicator in the status bar at the top of the screen. If the Wi-Fi icons is not present, the terminal will
not be able to process the transaction. If you are using 4G/3G communication and signal strength is 2 bars or
below, the transaction may be processed slowly, or the terminal may not be able to process the transaction.
Refer to the No connection error message (page 64).
2.
Determine which transaction you want to process (for example, Purchase, Preauthorization, Refund,
Independent refund, Void). Purchase is the default transaction.
3.
Start the transaction on the terminal and follow the prompts. For instructions, refer to pages 13-44.
If prompted, pass the terminal to your customer so they can respond to the customer prompts.
If card entry is required to complete the transaction, the customer (if present) enters their card using
tap, insert, or swipe.
The merchant prompts and the customer prompts may vary depending on:
the transaction type (for example, Purchase or Refund)
the payment type (for example, credit or debit)
the method of card entry (for example, insert, swipe, tap, or manual entry)
any features you have turned on (for example, tipping)
The merchant prompts and the customer prompts may vary depending on:
If a transaction is canceled, the terminal audibly announces the cancellation over the terminal speaker.
4.
Process any printed receipts (page 46).
Customer receipt: Give this copy to the customer. If the customer is holding the terminal, they can tear
off the receipt themselves.
Merchant receipt: Keep this copy for your records.
