About Credit Card Processing
Processing credit cards is easy and flexible. This feature gives you:
Level 3 line item detail
Control of approval numbers and dollars
Greater prepay transaction flexibility.
To process credit cards electronically at Level 1 or Level 2, you need:
Automated authorization and capture software, such as POS-partner. POS-partner lets you receive authorizations, store transactions, settle transactions with your clearing house, report on your transaction dollars by type of card and communicate electronically using Internet TCP/IP.
Approval Link™ 2.0 is the interface between your system and POS-partner.
To process payments with Level 3 item detail, you need Approval Link + and POS-partner.
Together, Approval Link 2.0 and POS-partner cut costs for processing credit card transactions. Approval Link 2.0 and POS-partner let you:
Be compatible with all major credit card services
Accept procurement, corporate, major and private label credit cards
Accept multiple merchant IDs
Approve Level 1 and Level 2 transactions
Change prepay orders
Make fast, reliable TCP/IP connections from your server to POS-partner
Use approved point-of-sale equipment
Authorize credit card orders placed through Dealer Station.
