Select and edit the trailer message for cardholder receipts

There are 10 Trailer Message options available in each language.

Select one of the default messages (1 through 5) and edit it to suit your requirements or select a blank message (6 through 10) to create your own promotional message.

If you have customized a trailer message, you can reset the message to the original text.

IMPORTANT: If you edit or change an English trailer message, ensure that you also edit the corresponding French message. The trailer message that prints on the cardholder receipt is determined by the language on the card's magnetic stripe.
For example: If you select Option 1 and replace ' xxxxxx' with your company name in the English message, make sure to replace the ' xxxxxx' in the French Option 1 message as well.

Note: You can select more than one trailer message to print on your receipts.  

There are four lines per trailer message; each line can be from zero to 24 characters (if no double width is used) or from zero to 12 characters (if double width is used).  All characters are allowed.
