Setting up your Point of Sale (POS) System

POS system setup for H-Town Reward Points transactions

To record H-Town Reward Points transactions, you'll first need to add H-Town Reward Points as a payment method. After it has been configured as such, you'll be able to select it when a customer asks to redeem their H-Town Reward Points for a purchase at your business. Configuration of new payment methods / tender types are different for each POS system. Please find your system's name and click the link for full configuration instructions.

B. Setup for POS systems with manual transactions records:

In case you use a manual register, or your existing POS system does not support adding a new tender type, we recommend you have a manual record for H-Town Reward Points transactions. Here are few suggestions:

• Marking any receipts that are paid for with H-Town Reward Points in a distinguishable way (such as writing the letter 'H-Town Reward Points' on the receipt) and filing the receipts for reconciliation at the end of each payment period.
  
  

• Logging every H-Town Reward Points transaction on a spreadsheet or other bookkeeping software.
  
  

• Repurposing an existing tender type that is not used (for example an IOU button or a Gift Certificate button). This button or tender type should be exclusively used to record H-Town Reward Points transactions and will effectively serve as the H-Town Reward Points button on their POS.
  
  

To continue giving your customers the best service, please make sure to train your staff on the H-Town Reward Points redemption transactions.
