Authorisation operations

Revision History

To pay for goods and services provided by an enterprise equipped with Tillypad XL, a client can use various cards (credit and debit cards, hotel cards, Tillypad regular customer cards, regular customer cards of other systems used in your enterprise). The system requires you to confirm that the payment can be made with the presented card or that the client can enjoy special service conditions (earn points, receive discounts, etc.).

Payment authorisation is the process of receiving permission to run a payment operation by means of an external system or to refund a payment made earlier by a client. If the payment was accompanied by an authorisation, the payment refund must be accompanied by a refund authorisation.

The Tillypad XL system records each transaction in the Authorisation operations log.
