Mobile Credit Card Processing-PAYware Mobile Receipt Questions
A great question I received in the office today was about PAYware mobile credit card processing receipts, and if they are customizable. The answer is, “absolutely”!
Mobile merchants accepting credit cards on their iPhone 3G and iPhone 3Gs will email customers their sales receipt. The receipt will contain all of the necessary information required by payment processing regulations, but the header and footer area can be customized to meet the needs of the merchant.
To customize receipts the merchant must be logged in to the PAYware Connect gateway, and from there enter the Merchant Portal section.

Another common question business owners wanting to process credit cards on their iPhone 3G or iPhone 3G S ask, “Is the PAYware mobile application customizable”? The answer is yes.

Sales Tax
Merchants have the ability to customize the tax percentage calculated on each sale. This rate can be changed, on-the-go, for those merchants who travel to different tax rate areas.
Tip Function
Merchants have two options when customizing their tip function on PAYware mobile. They can have the application calculate based on a certain percentage of the sale (say 20%), or they can manually enter the tip amount for each sale.
