POS Device Transactions Not Processing
There are several reasons why the POS device may not process transactions. Use the following steps to troubleshoot failures.
-
Test the Card Reader
-
The cause of the problem may be the card reader:
-
Perform transactions with several cards to ensure the problem is not a defective card.
-
Make sure the card is being swiped properly. With the VeriFone® Vx510/570 card reader, the black magnetic stripe on the card should face down and in, toward the keypad.
-
Process a transaction manually using the keypad instead of using the card reader.
-
If the manual transaction works, submit a support ticket to have the POS device replaced.
-
-
- Check Connection
- If the manually-keyed transaction doesn't work, check the internet or telephone connection to ensure the terminal is connecting properly.
