How to Create a Terminal Payment

Terminal payments allow you to send payment amounts to a physical card terminal for in-person transactions. This guide walks you through creating a terminal payment. Steps to Create a Terminal Payment - Open the billing app and go to the Create Payment option. Choose Payment Type: - From the Payment Type dropdown, select Terminal Payment. Select an Account: - Use the Account field to search for and select the patient account. Choose a Card Terminal: - In the Card Terminal dropdown, select the terminal you want to use. If no terminal is listed, see the note below for assistance. Enter the Payment Amount: - Input the amount in the Amount field. - Toggle the Enable Surcharge option if you wish to add a 2.39% surcharge for in-person payments. Note: The office must be enabled for surcharges. Send the Amount to the Terminal: - Click the Send to Terminal button to send the payment amount to the card terminal. - Alternatively, you can manually key in the payment amount directly on the terminal. Complete the Transaction: - The customer can insert, swipe, or tap their card on the terminal to complete the transaction. Important Notes - No Terminal Linked? If your office does not have a credit card terminal linked to the system, contact our support team, and we’ll provide assistance with setting one up. Frequently Asked Questions - Can I manually enter card details for terminal payments? No, terminal payments require a linked card terminal. Use the virtual payment method for manual card entry. - What happens if the terminal doesn’t respond? Ensure the terminal is connected and selected correctly. Contact support if the issue persists.
