Power Save

The Power Save feature allows you to control the time before the screen dims due to
inactivity on the terminal. This feature is typically used to conserve battery power and extend
the amount of time the terminal can be used for without re-charging.

Surcharging

You have the option of charging customers an additional fee for paying by credit cards.
Your terminal can automatically calculate and add the surcharge to each transaction. The
surcharge must be limited to the reasonable cost of accepting the transaction.
You must ensure that your customers:
• Are aware that there is an extra charge for paying by credit card/debit card.
• Are aware what the cost will be before the transaction proceeds.
Make your customers aware
Consider using in-store notices or prominent messages on bills. Customers can then choose
whether to pay the card fee or to use another form of payment, such as cash.
On-screen customer prompts
The terminal screen prompts customers to confirm whether they will accept the surcharge or
choose to cancel the transaction.
How to add a surcharge fee
Contact the Merchant Helpdesk to activate surcharging on your terminal.
