Taking a Manual Imprint of a Credit Card

If the "Imprint Card Press OK Key" prompt appears:

1.      Take an imprint of the customer's credit card using the imprinter and the appropriate paper Sales Draft (e.g. a Visa Purchase paper sales draft for a Purchase on a Visa card).

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the Card Number, Issue Date, Expiry Date and Cardholder Name are legible.

2.      Print the transaction date and amount on the paper sales draft.

Note: If the transaction amount is over your Merchant Floor Limit, call the Moneris Credit Voice Authorization number to obtain a Voice Authorization Number for the transaction and record the Voice Authorization Number on the paper sales draft.

3.      To process a Purchase, have the cardholder sign the sales draft. Ensure the signature matches the signature on the card. If not, contact the Moneris Merchant Service Centre.
OR
To process a Refund, sign the sales draft yourself.

4.      Provide the customer with the Cardholder copy of the Sales Draft and retain the Merchant copy for your records.

5.      Press the green OK key to continue the transaction.
