NOTE
You are recommended to activate this mode.
This payment can work as an alternative when other methods fail.
• Credit Card
Select this mode to allow customers to pay by credit card. This option will only be available if
the credit card security software is previously installed. Ask your local dealer for more details.
o Credit Card parameters
This section will be activated only if the credit
card security software is installed and the
credit card payment mode has been checked.
Use this section to initialize the credit card
information that is needed to make the credit
card payment. The payment platform provider
provides all the required information.
There is an optional possibility to define a
minimum and a maximum amount for credit
card payments. This option might be used depending on the acquiring bank agreement.
• Prepayment
Select this mode if customers are using prepayment cards. They allow the customer to
prepay for services and maintain credit on the card. The customer is treated by the system in
personalized fashion.
This kind of card is personal for each user and can be used in a specific Kiosk or in a group
of Kiosks that belong to the same scope. These scopes are defined using the Administration
WebServer interface.
The Customer is required to insert the card at the beginning of the transaction, in the main
screen. Subsequently, it will not be possible to use the prepayment card.
• Cash
This method allows customers to pay for Kiosk services using cash.
It is possible to adjust some parameters such as the coins or bills accepted and other
change-related parameters.
If the “Optional Hardware” checkbox in the “General Settings” tab is selected, this option will
be enabled. Moreover, if the Kiosk does not detect the hardware when the program starts, it
will not be able to detect it later and the option will remain disabled until the application is
restarted.
