Step 3: MOTO`

If your business has been approved for MOTO – select MOTO and Enable (1) and accept the terms.

• If no MOTO option provided, you will need to apply to accept MOTO transactions

^{` MOTO or mail order, telephone order transactions. Please be advised that MOTO transactions are riskier than other transactions because the card is not present and should a customer raise a chargeback, it will be your responsibility to prove the genuine cardholder authorised the transaction. The chargeback risk and liability reside with yourself, not Tyro or the cardholder. Please note additional fees may apply.}

Step 4: Cash Out^

Select Cash out and Enable (1) or Disable (2).

• If Cash out is enabled, the machine will ask if the customer wants cash out during every transaction. If the customer doesn’t want cash out, the machine operator needs to type $0

Step 5: Pre-authorisations~

If your business has been approved for pre-authorisations, select Pre-Authorisations and Enable (1).

Step 6: Tipping (hospitality businesses only)

If you see a prompt for Tipping select Enable (1).

• Choose Manual (to allow customers to manually enter the tipping amount) or Percentage tipping (to provide a selection of percentages of the initial transaction amount to choose from)
