Receipts

Processing receipts from a transaction

Customer copy

The customer has up to 4 options for receiving a receipt: 1 Email, 2 Text, 3 Print, and 4 None, depending on how you have set up the receipt options .

Note:     After a transaction is completed for Card Not Present or Contactless Transactions, the terminal only prints a Merchant copy. If the cardholder would like a copy, then the clerk would assist with a customer copy reprint process.

Note:     Even if you have the optional external PIN pad, the receipt output selection will still be displayed on the terminal, so the merchant will need to ask the cardholder how they would like their receipt.

Customer option Merchant action
1 Email

No action required.

Moneris does not store the customer's email address. This means the customer will have to enter their email address on the terminal each time they wish to receive a receipt by email.

2 Text

No action required.

Moneris does not store the customer's cell phone number. This means the customer will have to enter their cell phone number on the terminal each time they wish to receive a receipt by text.

3 Print

The customer copy of the receipt will print on the terminal, followed by a 3-second pause which you can change .  The pause allows you time to tear off the receipt before the merchant copy begins printing.

Give the customer copy  to the customer, but note:

If a merchant signature line is printed, sign this copy before giving it to the customer.

4 None

No action required.

Merchant copy

The merchant copy of the receipt prints after the cardholder copy.  Always keep the merchant copy for your records, but note:

If indicated on screen, ask the customer to sign your copy of the receipt, then tap OK .

For UnionPay transactions, always obtain the customer's signature on the merchant copy of the receipt.

You do not need to obtain a signature if any of these messages are printed:

VERIFIED BY PIN

NO SIGNATURE REQUIRED

Card masking

When printed on receipts, all card numbers are masked except for the last 4 digits. Masking replaces a card’s numbers with asterisks (e.g., ************1234). The expiry date is not printed on any copy of any receipt.  These measures help to prevent fraud.
