To manually enter a credit card number (e.g. in cases where the magnetic stripe fails, or the card is not available to tap/insert/swipe):

  1. Click the Checkout button to finalize the sale, as normal.
     
  2. The Tender window will open – select the applicable credit card tender.

  3. The Credit Card Amount window will open - click the Manual Entry button. 




      4. The PINpad will present options to swipe, tap or insert the credit card.  Manually enter the credit card number and its expiry date into the PINpad, then press the Enter/OK button on the PINpad once complete. 


[NOTE:  The PINPad will not indicate that the user should manually enter the card number, but it will accept the manual entry if the Manual Entry button was selected in Aria in the previous step.]    



      5. Then, click OK on the Credit Card Amount window in Aria once complete.  

      6. The Balance will update to $0.00.  Click OK to Tender the Transaction, as normal.    

      7. Once approved, the credit card transaction record will print, displaying the partially masked card number.  An M will display after the reference number to indicate the card was manually entered.  The receipt for the transaction will reflect an M below the card description to indicate the manual entry of the card.
