Paper
• •
•
Use the correct size paper roll Poor-quality thermal paper can jam the printer and create excessive paper dust. To order high-quality paper, please contact EFTPOS New Zealand Store thermal paper in a dry, dark area. Handle thermal paper carefully: impact, friction, temperature, humidity, and oils affect the colour and storage characteristics of the paper
•
Never load a roll of paper with folds, wrinkles, tears, or holes at the edges
•
Before installing a fresh paper roll into the terminal, remove at least 20cm of paper from the roll to ensure tape residue or gum is not on the paper
•
To clean the paper roll area, use a clean cloth slightly dampened with water and a drop or two of mild soap
CAUTION: To prevent the paper roll cover from damaging the print roller, always gently press down on the printer dust cover to close it.
Chip Card Reader

Guide to securing your terminal As part of EFTPOS New Zealand’s ongoing commitment to providing the most up to date information on eftpos terminal and cardholder data security, a list of best practices for protecting your terminal/s and your customer’s information is outlined below. Your terminal is equipped with a number of built-in security features that are designed to protect your customer’s information. By implementing the recommendations below, you can help protect your business, your customers and your reputation from credit and debit card fraud or misuse. Recommendations
•
Always ensure that terminals are secure and under supervision during operating hours (including any spare or replacement eftpos terminal/s you have).
•
•
Ensure that only authorised employees have access to your eftpos terminal and are fully trained on its use
IMPORTANT
When closing your store or kiosk, always ensure that your eftpos terminal is securely locked and not exposed to unauthorised access
• •
Your eftpos terminal is missing
•
Your eftpos terminal prints incorrect receipts or has incorrect details
•
Your eftpos terminal is damaged or has been tampered with
•
•
16
Never allow your eftpos terminal to be maintained, swapped or removed without advance notice from EFTPOS NZ. Be aware of unannounced service visits and only allow authorised EFTPOS NZ personnel to maintain, swap or remove your terminal and always ensure that security identification is provided
•
Inspect your eftpos terminal on a regular basis - ensure that there are no additional cables running from your eftpos terminal and that the casing has not been tampered with
•
Check your eftpos terminal is located where it should be each morning and printing the correct details on receipts
•

4 Verifone VX 520 Colour Key Differences
17
Key Differences
•
Your new terminal is connected to our new next generation Verifone network.There are some key differences in the operation of your terminal that you need to be aware of.
In-line Tipping on the terminal
Hospitality menu now named Pre-Auth menu The Hospitality menu has been renamed ‘Pre-Auth’ - pre-authorisation.
•
‘Pre-Auth’ replaces ‘Store’ A Pre-Auth transaction is now stored on the network rather than on the terminal, there is also no card data stored on the terminal.
•
‘Completion’ replaces ‘Recall’ Completion is now quicker and easier to process as a Pre-Auth can be started on one terminal and completed on a different terminal. When a Pre-Auth transaction is begun, an 8 digit Pre-Auth ID is printed on the original receipt. This 8 digit PIN is used to recall the information in order to complete the transaction. Please retain original receipts for easy recall of transaction information.
•
18
‘Cancellation’ replaces ‘Delete’ Cancelling the transaction removes all information from the network. All Pre-Auth transactions are now stored on the network rather than the terminal. When a Pre-Auth is cancelled a message is sent to the relevant acquiring bank to clear the hold on funds. The funds will be cleared automatically by the bank if the cancellation is processed in the same settlement period as the Pre-Auth. If the cancellation is processed in a later settlement period than the Pre-Auth, the hold on funds may take up to one week to be cleared.
‘Open Report’ no longer exists in the Pre-Auth menu. This is because all Pre-Auths are stored on the network rather than on the terminal
In-line Tipping allows you or your customer to add tips to purchases using debit as well as credit cards. The Visa and Mastercard mandate requiring PIN validation for all domestic card transactions negates the ability for tips to be signed for on credit card receipts. Inline tipping ensures you retain the additional revenue you receive from tips performed on domestic credit cards as well as simplifying the process. Merchants/Cardholders are prompted to enter the optional tip amount after the purchase amount is entered. The total amount is processed as one transaction but the purchase and the tip are itemised separately on the receipt. Mail Order and Telephone Order The transaction flow has been improved to be more intuitive and allow you to capture CVV information in compliance with security standards. The new flow for processing mail and telephone order transactions is detailed in the user guide on page 11. MAN PAN transactions Transactions can no longer be completed manually after three failed card swipes. Manually entering the card number is still supported on Pre-Auth and Refund transactions.
MOV – Manual Offline Vouchers Debit Manual Offline Vouchers (MOV) will no longer be offered as a service. These have been replaced with the improved process called Electronic Offline Vouchers (EOV) - see page 22 for details. Receipt features There are a number of enhancements to receipt features that deliver more functionality and flexibility:
•
Double height transaction amount clearly shows the outcome of a transaction
•
Declined transactions are printed in full (NZD$1.00) instead of X’s (NZ$X.XX)
•
Ability and space to print extra information such as GST numbers, phone numbers, address information, and provide messages such as ‘have a nice day’ at the top of the receipt
Recurring Payment Recurring payment is a new feature in the MOTO menu that allows you to process regular payments at predetermined intervals. If you are interested in setting up recurring payments contact your acquiring bank. There are competitive Merchant Service Fees (MSF) for recurring transactions compared to other Card Not Present MSF rates. How to use the recurring payment functionality is explained on page 12. Refund Process The refund process has been updated so that a merchant card is no longer required, instead simply enter your 6 digit merchant password (PIN) to process a refund. Please change your password once you have setup your terminal. Your password is stored on the terminal so our helpdesk staff are unable to retrieve it
for you. If you have forgotten your password please call the helpdesk on 0800 EFTPOS and they will assist you in resetting it. Where and how to use your merchant password is explained on page 9. Settlement Process The settlement process has been improved by including more useful information on the receipt. The receipt is now longer. If you choose to install your new terminal at the beginning or end of your trading day, you will not notice any changes to the settlement deposit into your bank account. If you choose to install your new terminal during your trading day, both your old & new terminals will settle and you will notice two settlement deposits processed into your bank account. This will only occur once, on the day following the installation. There are three ways settlement cutover can happen:
•
Terminal Manual cutover - The settlement cutover function is initiated by you on the terminal and Cutover Settlement Totals receipt is printed
•
Auto Cutover - Businesses with nonstandard business hours can request a specific settlement time to be set up. No receipt is returned to the terminal but you can initiate a settlement inquiry to obtain totals
•
End of Day Interchange Cutover - If a terminal has not settled via one of the two methods above, the terminal will automatically cutover at 2200 (10PM)
A settlement blackout will be in place between 2200 (10PM) and 2300 (11PM). You are unable to manually settle your terminal within this time period. Settled funds clear your bank account at different times according to when settlement cutover was completed:
19
•
Monday to Friday until 2200 (10PM) Funds processed overnight, available next morning
•
Monday to Friday after 2200 (10PM) Funds processed following night, available following morning
•
Friday after 2200 (10PM), weekends Funds available by 10am Monday
The settlement menu section also has one changed function name:
•
‘S&F Totals’ replaces ‘Stored Totals’
Surcharge and Service Fee Are you thinking about upgrading your payment solution? If you are concerned about the costs involved, a surcharge or service fee terminal solution could be right for your business. If you would like to know more please contact us on 0800 EFTPOS (0800 338 767).

Electronic Offline Vouchers (EOV) allow you to process transactions offline if your terminal is unable to go online to authorise transactions.
terminal faults or is unable to go online, to upload the stored EOV transactions. The card number on the customer copy is truncated.
The terminal is permitted to go into EOV
While in EOV mode the terminal will attempt to go online every 10 minutes. Once it is able to go online the terminal will upload the stored EOV transactions to our network.
mode for any of the following reasons: •
Telecommunication errors
•
Our network unavailable
•
Power outages
What you need to know
•
System faults
•
Failure to clear pending transactions
There are a number of limits / restrictions applied when a terminal is in EOV mode. These are as follows:
EOV is available on both magnetic swipe and chip cards for debit and credit card transactions. EOV is not designed to function as a secondary connectivity option. It is intended as an emergency continuation of processing capability when situations such as a loss of network or connectivity occur.
Benefits EOV will lessen the impact of network or communication outages offering you continuity to processing payment. Transactions can still be processed through your terminal in a safe and secure manner when EOV has been enabled, providing you with extra reliability and peace of mind. EOV makes manual offline vouchers a thing of the past and reduces the likelihood of errors.
How EOV works If a transaction fails twice, for one of the reasons listed above, the terminal will automatically go into EOV mode. Once in EOV mode, rather than trying to go online to authorise each transaction, the terminal stores the transaction information until it can go online. The full card number is printed on the merchant copy of the receipt, in case the
22
•
The maximum dollar amount allowed per EOV transaction is $300
•
The maximum number of EOV transactions allowed up until midnight is 200
•
The EOV duration period resets at midnight each night
•
The maximum dollar amount per terminal while in EOV mode is $5,000 for credit and/or debit card transactions
•
Only one EOV transaction per card, per account, per EOV session is permitted on each terminal
•
Not all transaction types are permitted in EOV mode. Transactions not permitted are:
•
--
Cash Advance
--
Refund
Not all card types are supported in EOV mode; e.g: --
Amex
--
Diners
--
Proprietary cards; e.g. gift cards, Farmers, etc.
•
•
Your copy of the EOV receipt must be retained in a secure locked location for 12 months. This will enable you to provide a copy if requested by the cardholder’s bank and also obtain payment from your Merchant Acquiring Bank if the terminal is unable to upload the EOV transactions A chip card may override the limits set in the terminal, or even whether an offline transaction is permitted. This is dependent on what rules the card issuer has applied
An EOV transaction is only an authorised transaction if ALL of the following conditions are met: •
The cardholder must be present at the time of the transaction
•
The electronic offline receipt is signed by the customer and the signature is comparable with the signature on the card, or if prompted, the PIN is entered
•
The card transaction doesn’t include any cash out
Please note that if the above conditions are not met and the terminal is unable to upload stored EOV transactions, you will be liable for any related losses. How do I know if my terminal is in EOV mode? ‘OFFLINE’ will be displayed in bold red font in the top left corner of the screen. Depending on the card used there may be a signature capture field printed on the receipt. This will be the case for all magnetic swipe transactions as well as some chip transactions.
What do I do if my terminal faults or becomes inoperable while it has stored EOV transactions in it? You should contact your Merchant Acquiring Bank for assistance. They will ask for copies of the receipts and once received, the transactions will be processed. If you are unable to provide copies of the receipts they will not be able to process the transactions and you will be liable for any losses sustained as a result. Why won’t some chip cards work in EOV mode? Whether a chip card will allow EOV transactions is dependent on the rules the issuing bank has applied; e.g. a card issuer may have set up a card with a lower transaction limit, or limited a card to a specific number of offline transactions – once this is exceeded the card will decline subsequent offline transactions. Do I always have to get the customers signature? All transactions where a card is swiped will require signature capture. In some cases the terminal may prompt for PIN entry, if a chip card is used. In these instances a signature is not necessary, and a signature line won’t appear on the receipt. How do I know when I must get the customer’s signature? The merchant copy of the receipt will have a signature capture line printed on it, and the terminal will display a prompt stating ‘SIGNATURE REQUIRED’, followed by a prompt to check the signature: ‘SIGNATURE OK? Y / N’.
23
What happens if the customer doesn’t sign the EOV receipt? If the terminal prompts for signature capture, a signature must be obtained for the transaction to be deemed to be approved. If the cardholder queries the transaction with their bank and you can’t produce a signed copy of the receipt you are liable for the chargeback. Also, if the terminal is unable to go online to upload any stored EOV transactions you will be liable for any losses you sustain because a signed receipt could not be provided to your Merchant Acquiring Bank. Why do I have to store the receipts in a secure, locked location? In order to provide the ability to recover transactions that may be lost due to terminal failure, the full card number is printed on the merchant copy of the receipt. This is highly sensitive card data and must be stored securely. Will my mobile or IP terminal operate in EOV mode? Yes, no matter what communication method you use, if connectivity is lost your terminal will go into EOV mode. How many transactions can I process in EOV mode? The terminal will store up to 200 transactions or up to $5000 worth of credit card and/or debit card transactions, up until midnight. At midnight the terminal will reset and another 200 transactions or up to $5000 worth of credit card and/or debit card transactions can be stored.

What is the maximum amount per transaction that can be processed in EOV mode? The maximum amount per transaction in EOV mode is $300. Can a Settlement be processed in EOV mode? All EOV transactions must be processed prior to a settlement transaction being attempted. If a settlement is attempted the terminal will display ‘INVALID OFFLINE TRANS’. A successful logon is required. If a Settlement is attempted after a successful logon the terminal will automatically upload the EOV batches prior to performing the Settlement. What happens if a customer uses an expired card while the terminal is in EOV mode? The terminal checks the card expiry date against the terminal’s internal clock. If the card has expired the terminal will display ‘EXPIRED CARD’ and the transaction will not be stored. What should I do if my terminal keeps going into EOV mode? If your terminal goes into EOV mode frequently or for a prolonged period of time you should contact your terminal provider for assistance in identifying the cause.
6 Surcharge and Service Fee Obligations
25
Do you want to offer your customers flexible payment options without increasing your costs? Applying a surcharge can help recoup the cost of accepting credit card transactions while applying a service fee to all electronic transactions is an excellent way to recoup the cost of your payment solution. There are clear legal obligations you must meet if you add a surcharge or service fee to your normal prices. The EFTPOS New Zealand Surcharge & Service Fee Solutions take care of some of these obligations for you, but it is important that you read and understand the full terms and conditions provided when you sign up for a Surcharge or Service Fee Solution.
Do I need to tell my customers about the surcharge or service fee? Yes, businesses must clearly identify the full cost to purchase a product or service upfront, so that consumers can make an informed decision about whether to purchase. You must clearly display notices, signs or decals at your physical premises, as well as a notice next to your point of sale, in a minimum of Arial 10 point font, disclosing that you will apply a surcharge fee when payment is made by credit card, or a service fee when payment is made by any card. In the absence of a physical point of sale, such notices or signs must be displayed prominently during an Internet order transaction or communicated clearly in a telephone order, in each case prior to the transaction being processed. We have provided you with a sign to display at your point of sale.
26
When do I need to tell my customers about the fee? The Cardholder must be informed of the rate, amount or method of calculation of the fee at the time of purchase and the Cardholder must have the opportunity to cancel the transaction once the fee has been disclosed. EFTPOS New Zealand’s Surcharge and Service Fee solutions has been developed to meet these obligations by clearly displaying the fee amount on the terminal screen and offering customers the opportunity to cancel the transaction.
How do I work out the value of my fee? You can either apply your surcharge or service fee as a flat fee or as a percentage of the transaction amount. You’ll also be able to choose a minimum and maximum transaction amount that triggers your chosen fee. If you opt to apply a surcharge or service fee as a percentage you’ll be able to select minimum and maximum fee amounts. If you choose to apply a surcharge fee to credit card transactions you must ensure the surcharge bears a reasonable relationship to your cost of accepting the credit card. There are also some limits to how much you can charge Surcharge You can choose to apply a surcharge as a flat fee up to $9.00 OR; You can choose to apply a surcharge as a percentage of the transaction amount up to 9%. Service Fee You can choose to apply a service fee as a flat fee up to $20.00 OR; You can choose to apply a service fee as a percentage of the transaction amount up to 20%.
Does the fee have to be part of the purchase transaction? Yes, the surcharge or service fee must be processed as part of the total amount of the transaction. We have taken care of this obligation for you as part of our solution.
How do I describe the fee to my customers? Inform your customers that you apply a surcharge to payments made using a credit card, which is in line with your cost of acceptance, or a service fee to all payments made using a card. You must not describe the fee as, or inform the cardholder that the fee is, applied by a card scheme, by us or by a third party financial institution.
What payments can I apply a fee to? You can apply a surcharge fee to credit cards only. A service fee is applied to all electronic payments.
Does the fee amount have to display separately on the receipt? We have taken care of the receipt requirements for you as part of our Surcharge and Service Fee solutions. The transaction amount and fee amount are listed separately on the receipt.
