Reading the card
After a transaction is started, the cardholder presents his card. Depending on card capabilities
and what is allowed this can be done via magstripe, chipcard or contactless.
Magstripe
Swipe the card horizontally from left to right with the stripe facing the terminal. Use a regular
movement in order to ensure a reliable card reading.
Chipcard
Insert the card horizontally with the chip facing upwards and leave in position throughout the
transaction.
Contactless
Bring the card firmly up to the active zone. Keep the card close to the reader during the
transaction. The 4 virtual LEDS are displayed during the transaction.
In any case the cardholder follows the instructions on the terminal. The terminal may ask for
PIN entry and confirmation of the amount. When the transaction is approved, the terminal will
sound 3 short beeps.
The cardholder returns the terminal to merchant. Press ‘OK’.
