Card not present (CNP) transactions

If your business receives orders by Internet, mail, or telephone, you can process these transactions by enabling the Allow Card Not Present feature. This allows you to process transactions without the cardholder and their card being present in your place of business.

The key difference between regular transactions and CNP transactions is that the cardholder and their card are not normally present. This means that:

§        Only credit card (and some debit cards, such as Visa debit and Mastercard debit) transactions are permitted

§        CNP transactions are performed by keying in the card number, the expiry date, and any card verification value (CVV). The card cannot be swiped or inserted or tapped.

§        The cardholder signature is not required.

§        The tip prompt will not appear even if tipping is turned on.

§        Customer receipts do not need to be printed; however, Moneris recommends printing the Merchant copy and retaining it for your records.
