is that these contain “store and

swiping the credit card. Dealers then

never say no for a sale. Most of the
wireless terminals are enclosed in what
is known as ‘pin pads’. These terminals
allow operation with check acceptance
facilities. Because of the federal
regulations, electronic checks and debit
should be processed via a phone
connection. Thereby these cannot be
routed using a wireless connection. This
is done to provide security when
transactions require customer’s account.

utilized with phone line in case

within a certain area.

the validation of the card looking on to
find out whether anything was purchased
using the credit card and the purchased
goods amount supports the money that is
obtained on his/her credit card.

an approval figure to processor. These

terminal. Transaction often completes
