    Processing a Payment: Doing a Normal Sale

    Once the device is set up properly, and Artisan POS and the PaygistiX Client are installed and configured correctly, you can ring up a sale through the POS.  You’ll see a screen similar to the following, on the payment terminal device:

    Device is ready to take a payment: 

    Once EMV is enabled, if the credit card has a chip in it, you can insert it,chip first, in the slot at the front of the device, under the keyboard. Otherwise, swipe it in the magnetic stripe reader slot on the right side of the device (up-down or down-up).

    Processing a Payment: A keyed (manual card entry) sale

    If the card doesn’t read correctly, or you’re taking a phone order w/o the card present, you’ll have to enter the card info manually. (Also called a “Keyed” transaction.) You still use the Payment Terminal Device, but instead of swiping a card, start typing the card number on the keypad. This will take you to the Card Number screen, and then other manual card info screens. After each one, press Enter.

    Enter Card Number:

    SP30-12-Begin_Sale

    SP30-16-Keyed_Card_Number

    Enter Expiration Date:

    SP30-17-Keyed_Date

    Enter security code (“CID”, a.k.a. “CVV Code”):

    If you leave the security code blank, you may be prompted for the reason (such as “illegible”).

    Enter CC Billing Address (just the numeric part of the street address):

    SP30-19-Keyed_Address
