Card reversals / Void Payments

Tender vs Discount split

Tender vs Discount split is not currently part of the integration, but will be coming in a later phase.

What it does

If a card has been loaded with Discount (i.e. was not paid for by the customer), Tender, or a mixture - then Toggle will tell your POS at the point of redemption - The POS will then apply this payment as a Discount or Tender on your till.

This split enables you to accurately report on Tender and Discount values within iiko reporting, and more accurately calculate VAT payments on Tender.
