Swiping a Card
The card should be swiped through the PINpad with the black magnetic stripe facing the terminal and
running along the bottom of the card. You will be required to swipe the card if the chip cannot be read
or if the customer has a card with only the magnetic swipe.
PLEASE NOTE: It is important to swipe cards correctly through the terminal so that they can be read by
the card reader.
Using a Card with the Contactless Reader
The Contactless Card Reader is located on the PINpad. If the terminal is allowed to process Contactless
transactions the cardholder has the option to present their contactless card against the Contactless
symbol when displayed on the PINpad.
Make sure that the bottom of the card runs firmly along the bottom of the card swipe and that the card
is swiped at an even speed.
The speed of the card swipe should not be too slow as this can sometimes cause problems when the
terminal is reading the card.
If the card is removed too quickly a message
will appear on the display and the cardholder
will be asked to present the card again.
The cardholder should hold their card against the
Contactless symbol for it to be read.
