How to Process a Credit Card

You will need a completed student registration form. The card reader should be facing the student (Shopify logo toward the student). Any card with a chip must be inserted into the chip reader, and must not be removed while the transaction is being processed. Cards without a chip can be swiped.

  1. Tap the blue CHECKOUT bar when you are finished adding items.
  2. Verbally verify total amount from top of the screen with student.
  3. Student inserts or swipes card in card reader. For inserted card, if you receive “Couldn’t read chip,” the card is probably inserted backwards. Try again.
  4. When the screen displays "Remove Card" have the student remove the card, then wait for it to finish processing.
  5. After the payment is approved, the student may choose how to receive a digital receipt, or none at all. If the student prefers, you may give the tablet to the student so they may enter their own information.
  6. Tap the blue DONE bar.
  7. The transaction is complete, and the tablet is ready for the next student.
