Settling a Batch of Credit Card PurchasesYou can process a batch (group) settlement of credit card purchases at one time and in a manner you deem convenient. A batch is a collection of credit card transactions which must settle with the credit card processor.
You can establish a time to automatically submit your batch for processing, or you can manually submit it at one time.
To configure the system to automatically submit credit card transactions for processing:
- Log in to your Back Office using a Web browser.
- Select Settings > Payments.
The Payment Methods screen appears.
- In the Integrated Credit section:
- Select Automatic radio button from the Batch Settlement field.
- Select a time for the batch to be sent using the Send Batch at, drop-down list. The time zone setting for batch submission is Eastern.
Note: If you select Automatic as your settlement type, you can still submit batches manually.
Tip: If you adjust tips at the end of your business day, select a settlement time that provides adequate time to adjust tips before automatic settlement occurs. Once settlement completes, you cannot make changes to a transaction.
- Click Save.
As soon as the batch settlement completes, you receive an email message with the results. The subject line contains the heading,
SUCCESS or
FAIL. If the batch settlement fails, contact the your customer care team for assistance at 1-877-270-3475.
