Payments

Where possible, all types of payments should be entered into a cash register or computer terminal with point-of-sale software. In the event of equipment failure or power outages, all payments should be receipted manually with pre-numbered three-part receipts to ensure that all payments are documented. When functionality is restored, all monies should be entered into the register. Cash, coins, checks, and credit cards are acceptable payments for your goods or services.
