CREDIT / DEBIT: Choose the payment method.
The terminal prints out the merchant’s receipt and asks to print the customer’s receipt. Press Enter
if you wish to print out the customer’s receipt. Otherwise, press Cancel.
If the PIN-code was entered, the customer does not need to sign the receipt. The terminal will
remind you to check the customer’s ID, if the transaction exceeds 50,00€ (depending on the card
used). Press Enter, check the ID and write the last 4 digits of the social security number and which
ID was checked to the receipt.
Refund without the card: Press the * key when the terminal asks to insert the card. The terminal
asks for the card number and expiry date. The terminal will inform NOT ALLOWED if the card does
not allow manual entry.
4.2 ONLINE TRANSACTIONS
4.2.1 General information on online transactions
Online batch is a function which sends information on each payment transaction to the real-time
database of the Point reporting service. This is to prevent the loss of information from the payment
terminal. In connection with the next manual or automatic transaction transmission the transactions
stored in the database change status in the Point reporting service and will be automatically sent to
the recipient.
The option CONDITIONAL for online batches is available for terminal devices using GPRS. If an
offline transaction is made (the card is not verified), the terminal will not make an online
transmission of the transaction. When a verified transaction is carried out, the terminal makes an
online transmission of the transaction and also sends any transactions that have been queued.
NOTE! If the online batch is not activated, the transactions will be stored in the terminal’s
memory until the next batch sending. In these cases the responsibility is always the
merchant’s! It is recommended to use the online batch-function. If you wish to deactivate
this setting, please contact Point’s customer service.
4.2.2 Online batch
Online batch settings enable you to choose the maximum sum and number of transactions in the
terminal memory. After the maximum is reached, the terminal transmits the transactions forward.
• ONLINE QUEUE AMOUNT = The maximum sum of the transactions in queue. After this amount
is reached, the terminal will send all of the transactions in queue (e.g. 2,000 euros).
• ONLINE QUEUE COUNT = The maximum number of the transactions in queue. After this
number is reached, the terminal will send all of the transactions in queue (e.g. 20).
The largest possible sum is 999999,99 €. The largest possible number is 40.
NOTE! If you wish to edit these settings, please contact Point’s customer service
