Test and Certify

Before going live, your integration must pass certification.

This involves verifying the terminal hardware, confirming software configuration, and completing a series of test transactions to ensure everything works correctly.

Physical Check​

Inspect the terminal hardware before proceeding:

  • Terminal physical checking for defects
  • SIM card inserted (if SIM is required)
  • Paper roll is inserted

Software Check​

Verify the terminal software is properly configured:

  • Time zone correct
  • Firmware updated to the latest version
  • Airviewer installed
  • Keys cycled

Integration Testing​

Complete the test scenarios for your integration type to verify transaction handling:

  1. Explore the integration checklist—Point of Sale (POS) Test Cases.

  2. Perform the tests listed in the POS checklist, execute the required test scenarios and place a check mark next to each completed scenario.

  3. Run only the test cases relevant to your needs:

    • If you only require sale, refund, and reversal transactions, perform only the test scenarios that cover these transaction types.
    • If you would also like to store a customer's card details for future use, additionally complete the tests in the Tokenization section.

Transaction Testing​

Validate core payment functionality across different card types and transaction scenarios:

  • Cards: Visa/Mastercard; EMV contact, contactless (with PIN for higher amounts and without PIN for lower amounts).
  • Wallets: Apple Pay / Google Pay
  • Sale (online/card-present): approve, decline
  • Preauthorization/Capture: preauthorization, auth reversal/expiry, partial capture and full captures (both can incur fees as they cannot be reversed)
  • Refunds: full, partial
  • Reversals/Voids: Sale void, preauthorization void

Check the receipts:

  • Print X report and compare amount to the previous transactions
  • Print Z report and compare amount to the previous transactions

Additionally, we can enable extended testing to partners by providing a POS testing kit, which includes a debug terminal, test card, and charging base. To find out if you qualify, please contact your sales representative.
