Split Payments including Debit Cards

Payment Overview | Void a Debit Card Payment

This topic applies to users of the QuickBooks POS Merchant Service. What if I use another Service?

Split payment transactions involving debit cards are allowed, but only one debit card payment is allowed on a sale. Debit cards can be used in combination with other payment types.

Splitting payments that involve debit cards differ from the single debit card payment procedure as follows.

Do not swipe or insert the customers card until directed to do so below.

1. Complete the receipt and click Debit.

2. Type in the amount being paid by debit card in the Amount field.

3. Swipe or insert the card, have them enter their PIN, and optionally enter a cash back amount. Have the customer OK the amount on the PIN pad, if applicable.

Point of Sale connects to the Merchant Service for authorization in the same manner as in the single debit card procedure.

4. After authorization is received, enter the second payment type.

5. If using a credit card, swipe, insert, or enter information and follow the authorization process.

Or

If using another payment method, enter any requested information.

6. Repeat for a third payment type, if necessary.

7. Select Save & Print (if not configured to automatically save and print).
