Each payment you apply will be shown within the Payment Detail section.


• Use case 1: Let’s say a Guest would like to pay $100 with card and the rest with cash. Select the Credit Card tender and enter $100, then continue to tender the remaining balance with cash.


• Use case 2: Let’s say a Guest would like to pay with two cards. Select the Credit Card tender and enter half of the balance, then select Credit Card again and continue with the second card.

Once you have applied a Cash or Gift Certificate tender, you will see the amount applied under the Payment Detail section.

Select the X next to the payment to REMOVE this payment. 

 

• You can only access this function from this payment screen – if you complete the transaction or exit the tab, you will need to process a refund to correct any tender mistakes.
