It is possible to add a surcharge to purchases paid by debit card if:
your PAYD Pro PlusTM solution is integrated with the Moneris® payment processing solution
you are using an iPP320 PIN Pad to process customer payments.
The Surcharge parameters are configured in the Configuration - Settings screen. You can set a minimum and maximum transaction dollar amount against which the surcharge will be applied.
If the amount being charged to a customer's debit card on a Purchase falls within the specified range, the PIN Pad will prompt the customer that a Surcharge is being applied to their debit purchase. The customer must acknowledge the Surcharge amount by pressing the green key on the PIN Pad before proceeding.
NOTE: If the customer presses the red key on the PIN Pad, the debit purchase aborts, a cancellation receipt prints and the POS view appears.
Refer to the table below to understand the situations in which a surcharge would be applicable.
