How does the PowerPay credit card processing module work?
The free module allows you to accept cards directly through the POS, eliminating the need for a dedicated
terminal or phone line. A (USB) card reader attaches to your keyboard or monitor, and allows you to scan
the card directly from the payment screen. It uses your internet connection, instead of the phone line, for
nearly instant approval. (usually about 1-2 seconds) For info, click HELP → POWERPAY
PowerPay Shortcut: You can swipe a credit card from the main menu, once it has been
learned, and it will automatically call up the customer's payment screen when they return.
Tip: To enable shop disclaimers on the receipt, see CONFIG PRINTING PRINT DISCLAIMER ON PP→ →
