Credit Card Authorization With Cherry Keyboard

When utilizing integrated credit card at the POS stations -- cards swiped in the cherry keyboard and citi bank as processor -- how does one take an authorization for a bike rental? In the old days of having a seperate terminal it was one of the options but now doesn't seem possible.

If you are talking about pre-auths you should call those in manually. We have a special form we use for our rentals that lists the value for the rental item and a space to enter the pre-auth code.

You don't want to enter these in RMS as that would charge the customer and you'd have to refund the charge when the item is returned. We used to do this until a customer complained and our processor called and told us it was in violation of our merchant agreement. You can only charge them if they don't bring the rental item back or it's damaged.
