Closing a Check to a Gift Card 
With an Internet connection, you can apply a gift card as payment for a guest check. If you lack an Internet connection, or if the payment host is offline or unreachable, NCR Silver Pro Restaurant cannot process gift cards for payments on guest checks. The app must be able to connect to the payment host to verify the gift card and the funds available. Credit card payments, if you use Offline Credit, are available to use without an Internet connection, but gift cards are not. When you attempt to apply the gift card, you receive a ‘No connection’ error message. 
 
When a gift card no longer contains any funds to apply to a guest check, the system displays an authorization error and does not allow the use of the gift card. Additionally, when the system does not recognize the gift card number, the system displays an authorization error and does not allow the use of the gift card. 

  1. With the guest check active, tap PAY to access the ‘tender’ screen. 

  1. Slide the gift card through the MSR, confirm the amount to apply to the gift card or enter a different amount, and tap Done

-OR-   

Tap INTGIFT, confirm the amount to apply to the gift card or enter a different amount, and tap Done. Slide the gift card through the MSR, or tap Enter manually, type the gift card number, and tap Submit.

The system authorizes the card for payment.  

  1. If the system authorizes the gift card for the selected amount, tap Close. 

-OR-   

If the gift card lacks sufficient funds to cover the selected amount, an authorization message appears with the funds available on the gift card to apply for payment. Tap OK, and receive an additional form of payment or remove items from the guest check.  

You have the option to use the iPad's device’s camera to scan QR-coded gift cards (like from a third party loyalty application). Press Camera on the gift card payment screen, and scan the QR code with the camera. The gift card number will populate and you can proceed.  

Closing a Check to a House Account

Prior to closing a check to a house account, you must first create the house account in Silver Back Office. When searching for a house account, you search by the linked customer name rather than the house account name. Additionally, without an Internet connection to Silver Back Office, you cannot close a check to a house account. 

  1. At the order entry screen, after you have added items to the guest check, tap PAY.
