APPENDIX A
PHONE CARD
The NURIT 8000 has phone card capabilities. A merchant can supply phon
e cards that can be
reused as long as the card is valid.
The phone cards work in the following manner: a customer purchases a phone card for any
amount desired; anywhere from $1 to $100. When the card is depleted, the customer returns to
the merchant and purchases additional calling time on the same card.
The NURIT 8000
can have this phone card option and still process by either credit, debit, or
check, however the idle prompt will differ with the phone card option activated. If a credit or
debit card i
s swiped, at the phone card prompt, the terminal will automatically switch to the credit
or debit card prompt, respectively.
This phone card option is host capture-
auto dial, meaning the terminal will automatically dial out
to the host, and batch the phone card transactions. The terminal must be on
and plugged into a
phone line for the batching procedure. The batch time, and amount of attempts can be
programmed in Merchant Parameters. The following paragraphs explain the procedures on
processing a phone card transaction for the NURIT 8000.
The merchant uses a terminal, a PIN pad (if processing debit), and printer (optional). The
customer enters information on PIN pad (if applicable), and merchant confirms information on
the terminal.
