How do I collect a credit card payment using Genius/TransportWeb?

Cayan provide 2 payment systems that can be used in EVE: Genius and Transport WEB. Genius uses a physical credit card device so your customers can swipe/insert/touch their credit card. Transport WEB is for card-not-present (phone) transactions so you can type the credit card details.

 

As a first step, please make sure you have properly setup the corresponding options, as outlined in the instructions.

Then, verify whether your EVE setup already includes a payment method with the following settings or create a new one:

  1. Open EVE and click Data
  2. Go to Payment Methods and click Find
  3. If you need to create a new payment method, click New
  4. Type your payment method name. We recommend a generic Credit Card name, as both Genius and Transport Web can process different card types
  5. Check the Credit/Debit card box
  6. Check the Show Card Details Prompt box
  7. Check the Allow Credit Card Transmission box. These 3 boxes must be checked
  8. Save the settings

 

At the point of sale, after you have added all the stock items to the invoice, to take a payment using Genius/TransportWeb,

  1. Click on Payments
  2. Click on Credit Card
  3. By default, Genius will be selected. You can choose your preferred method. Use TransportWeb if the card is not present (e.g. you are processing a transaction over the phone).If you choose Transport Web, then form A

Please note that clicking Forward will reveal pictures accurately if they don’t display properly here.
Then, click on the Discounts tab, then Add, then select which Stock Types and which Discount Band you wish to apply:
FAQSales7.2
Customers of that type will then automatically receive a discount of the specified amount when they purchase any of those items from you.
To create Discount Bands in general, go to Inventory / Discount Bands / New and then create the appropriate discount:
FAQSales7.3
The formulae are based on RP meaning Retail Price or TP meaning Trade Price.
Theses should be surrounded by square brackets – [ ] – and then the appropriate percentage added or subtracted.
For those items in Packages, you can either just not select Packages as a stock type that bears a discount… if you have packages in a separate stock type.
If not, you’ll need to go to each of the package stock items and manually set the price to the same as the standard retail price:
