Charge Slip 101

What are Charge Slips?

Charge Slip refers to the receipt that is issued after using a credit card in a swipe machine or point-of-sale (PoS) terminal to pay for any purchases. The sales receipt known as a “charge slip” is the one that is printed after using a debit or credit card to swipe and make a purchase and contains the following information: Card Number, Transaction Date, Payment Amount, Approval Code, and Retrieval Reference Number (RRN).

Innoviti’s point-of-sale (PoS) terminal is most preferred by merchants as it guarantees a seamless transaction, quick and instantaneous printing of a bill and exciting offers and deals on select credit cards.

Purpose of a Charge Slip

Charge slips list the services rendered and any fees that may have been incurred. They serve as records of a transaction and necessary in the case a transaction is disputed. Customers seeking to replace or return a product cannot afford to misplace the charge slip. It is for this reason a cashier always retains a copy of the charge slip.

Innoviti creates high-quality PoS receipts at a low cost with quick and simple installation. The printer also boasts several fantastic features, such as an auto-cutter, drop-in paper feed, and status LEDs, which make operation and maintenance simple.
