Ui step

The next step is to Enter your customers' credit card information. There are two different options for this: preload credit cards or request credit cards from your customers.

A. Preload credit cards: Go to the customer setup window and enter your customers’ credit card information. This is optional, since you can save this information while processing a payment. Multiple cards can be stored.

B. Request Credit Card Option: to protect your customers security, you can also send to them a link so they enter their own credit card information. By using this option, no one in your company will have access to customer credit card information.  Once you use this option, an email will be sent to the customer with a form (Secured by Clearent) so they enter their data.

Set up physical terminals: Go to Accounts Receivables Settings>>Credit Card Terminals window and . Multilocation companies will need to set up different terminals for each location.

titleI want to close my day.

Each day it is important to reconcile Komet transactions with the Clearent settlement that will go to your bank.  In Payment History, run the Payment History Report and in the Clearent Virtual Terminal run the Batch report for the same date range.  Verify that both reports match exactly to ensure that Komet and Clearent transactions are in balance, enter this reconciled value into your accounting system as a deposit and your bank account will easily reconcile at month end.
