Processing Transactions
Once you have powered up and activated your V240m, charged it sufficiently and established a connection, you are now ready to take your first payment. To do so, please follow the steps outlined below:
Sale Process
- Elavon
- UK Banking
Step | Instruction | Guidance Image |
---|---|---|
1. | While the terminal is on the main screen, key in the amount for the sale and press [ENTER] key | |
2. | Insert chip card or swipe card or tap contactless card. The remainder of these steps assume that a chip card has been presented. The contactless process will be quicker, and swiped cards will need you to verify the cardholder's signature. | |
3. | The terminal connects to the host. | |
4. | The cardholder should check the amount and enter their pin here. | |
5. | The terminal connects to the host again. | |
6. | The terminal has received an approval response from the host and prints the Merchant receipt, which should be retained by you. | |
7. | The customer receipt is optional, as shown. | |
8. | When all required receipts have been confirmed and printed, the terminal will prompt to remove the card. When this is done, the transaction is complete. |

8. | Total = Amount + Cashback | |
9. | If the card was inserted, enter the PIN number. | |
10. | The terminal connects to your Acquirer and provides a result of the Authorisation; Approved, Declined etc. | |
11. | The first receipt printed is your Merchant Copy, which should be retained for your records. | |
