Payment credit card screen in SCO | Openbravo Public Documentation

This guide explains how to use the payment credit card screen in the Self-Checkout (SCO) system. It covers screen behavior across providers, expected user interactions, error handling, and post-payment flow to the Good bye screen.

Overview

The credit card payment screen appears after selecting the Credit Card method on the Payment screen.
Behavior varies by card provider (e.g., different prompts, confirmation dialogs, or device messages).
Most transactions require no user interaction beyond tapping/inserting the card and entering PIN/signature on the payment terminal.
Some providers may request additional confirmations or data (e.g., user data) via on-screen dialogs.
If the payment fails, the user will be prompted to retry, choose another method, or cancel.
