Processing Credit Card Transactions
Overview
This chapter explains how to process credit card transactions in Heartland Connect. Heartland Connect supports a card reader attached to the PC or manually keying the account number.
You can run the following credit card transactions
Sale
Pre-Auth
Return (Refund)
Force Auth
Verify
Find
Adjustment
Void
Important Security Note: Heartland Payment Systems has been made aware of an industry-wide increase in fraudulent credits posted by criminals who take over the credentials of a merchant’s virtual terminal account. As a result, Heartland has implemented a minor – but important – process change: Effective, January 11, 2011, all merchants are required to enter a PNRef number to process returns on credit card transactions through Heartland Connect. This helps you, the merchant, ensure your compliance with Heartland’s Merchant Processing Agreement as well as card brand regulations that prohibit merchants from processing a credit (refund) without a matching debit (sale). This regulation helps deter inside fraud (such as employees illegally giving credits to their own cards or their friends’ cards) and outside fraud (such as cardholders getting inappropriate credits). This notification can be seen on the main login page of Heartland Connect.
Heartland Connect Merchant User Manual
Heartland Payment Systems™ Rev 3/15/2013 12
Sale Transaction
Use the credit card sale when a customer uses a credit card as payment for goods or services. Heartland Connect records the card information and dollar amount and transmits this information to Heartland Payments. Heartland contacts the credit card issuer, receives an authorization, and displays an approval.
Note: If you are a healthcare provider, please ensure that patient demographic information is not stored as this would violate the health insurance privacy and portability act (HIPAA).
To enter a sale, follow these steps:
1. From the Main Menu, click Virtual Terminals.
2. Select Credit.
3. Enter information into the required fields. See Credit Card Field Descriptions on page 32 for more information. Actual fields that display may vary depending on the merchant setup.
4. Click Process. The approval displays.
You can print a receipt by clicking the Print Receipt field.
You can display a map of the cardholder’s address by clicking Map Address.
You can send the cardholder an email receipt by entering the cardholder’s email address in the [email protected] field and then clicking E-Mail Receipt. To email a receipt to multiple recipients, simply separate each address with a semi-colon (;).

1. From the Main Menu, select Virtual Terminals.

Note: If you are a healthcare provider, please ensure that patient demographic information is not stored as this would violate the health insurance privacy and portability act (HIPAA).
1. From the Main Menu, select Virtual Terminals.

Force Auth Transaction
Use the force auth transaction when you are unable to submit a transaction to Heartland for authorization. This usually occurs when there is a downtime condition and you had to authorize the transaction over the phone using voice authorization or you are completing a pre-auth. The force auth transaction adds the transaction to the batch for settlement. You have to have the approval code for a force auth.
Note: If you are a healthcare provider, please ensure that patient demographic information is not stored as this would violate the health insurance privacy and portability act (HIPAA).
To enter a force auth, follow these steps:
1. From the Main Menu, select Virtual Terminals.
2. Select Credit.
3. Select ForceAuth.
4. Enter information into the required fields. See Credit Card Field Descriptions on page 32 for more information. Actual fields that display may vary depending on the merchant setup.

Verify Transaction The Verify feature allows a merchant to determine if a customer’s Visa or MasterCard account is in good standing prior to proceeding with the sale without affecting cardholder’s account. The Verify feature does not protect you from chargebacks. The Verify feature is not an Authorization and is not meant to provide information to you or the issuer about the amount or type of the transaction. An Authorization is still required and supersedes the “Verification” response for the same transaction. The Verify feature can be used for other brands (i.e., AMEX & Discover) as well for validating the customer’s Zip Code.
Note: When using the Verify option, zip code is required for all non-Visa cards. Non-Visa cards will only receive zip code verification. It’s also recommended that the Street Address is included when Verifying a Discover transaction.
To do a Verify transaction, follow these steps:
1. From the Main Menu, select Virtual Terminals.
2. Select Credit.
3. Select Verify.
4. Enter or swipe the Credit Card
5. Enter the Expiration Date (if manually entered)
6. Enter the Card Holder Name and Zip Code
Heartland Connect Merchant User Manual
Heartland Payment Systems™ Rev 3/15/2013 26
Note: if the card is a non-Visa and non-MasterCard, then the Zip Code is required. Also, Non-Visa cards will only receive zip code verification
7. Click Process. The result displays.

Heartland Payment Systems™ Rev 3/15/2013 27
Adjustment Transaction
Use the adjustment transaction in restaurants to add or change the tip amount on a previously authorized transaction. Heartland Connect uses the PNRef number of the original transaction for adjustments.
Note: If you don’t know the PNRef number for the transaction, you can use the Find function to locate it. See Find Transactions on page 91 for more information on finding transactions.
To do an adjustment, follow these steps:
8. From the Main Menu, select Virtual Terminals.
9. Select Credit.
10. Select Adjustment.
11. Enter the PNRef of the original transaction. This can be found on the receipt in the Transaction # field.
12. Enter the new Tip Amount.
13. Click Process. The approval displays.
You can print a receipt by clicking the Print Receipt field.
You can send the cardholder an email receipt by entering the cardholder’s email address in the [email protected] field and then clicking E-Mail Receipt. To email a receipt to multiple recipients, simply separate each address with a semi-colon (;).

To perform a void, follow these steps:
1. From the Credit Transactions find window, click on the Ref # (PNRef) of the transaction you want to void.
