Steps to collect payment using Windcave
The steps explaining how to receive credit and debit card payments from a customer using Windcave as the Payment Type are explained below:
Scan a few products to the transaction grid and click the Pay button to reach the Payment screen.
On the Payment screen, you should see Windcave listed as one of the payment methods.
Edit the Amount To Pay field to enter the amount that the customer wants to pay using the Credit / Debit Card and then click the Windcave button, to receive the credit/debit card payment via the Windcave payment processor.
For illustration, we have assumed that the customer has selected the entire amount of 10.17 to be paid using the Credit / Debit Card.
Click the OK button, to send the payment request on the Windcave Payment Device.
The Windcave Payment Device will display the Amount To Pay on the screen. Your customer can either insert, tap, or swipe the EMV card on the Windcave Payment Device.
Ask the customer to type the card pin number and press the Green OK button to authorise the payment.
A sale transaction receipt is printed when the payment is successful. This receipt will reflect the payment made using the Windcave device.
If the switch Separate Receipt For Credit Card is flipped ON, a credit card transaction receipt is printed in addition to the regular transaction receipt.
The receipt printed from the Windcave device will only reflect sales made through a credit card and a debit card. If the payment is made using other payment types, it will reflect on the regular transaction receipt generated at the POS terminal.
Click the ADD NEW SALE button and you will be taken back to the POS transaction screen to start a new transaction.
