Card/EFTPOS Intergration

PC-EFTPOS EFT-Client TCP Interface Specification v1 34.pdf (999.6 KB)

Ok I’ve managed to download the SDK kit from their website, I’ve attached the PDF document which gives some brief information regarding integration POS with EFTPOS. It gives an example of REST API implementation and some over view of what the typical setup is and what to follow to integrate.

Haven’t read through in too much detail but sounds fairly similar to what I am using.
Although looks to have more requests.
One title that stands out is get last transaction which might be useable as a get arround for not being able to listed to replies… ie you can request the success/fail manually after sending amoutn but not ideal.

There’s another document which has an extensive list of relevant codes that terminal handles. It shows almost every case a user may face. This could be useful, when you want the POS machine to write specific things on the EFTPOS receipt based on the code that it has generated.

I believe that it could be possible to handle the queries through HTTP and samba scripting powers, inclusive of events handling that kendash mentioned, hmmmmWestpac Response Code Extensive.pdf (88.7 KB)
EDIT: I’ve attached a document which has the response codes from Westpac merchant(Westpac is a bank in Australia). For reference

Good document @Shivan - thanks for taking the time.

The details will make a good comparison to when my terminal arrives and if it not up to scratch then I have some detail to throw at my Provider. I have to stick with them for the time being as we have large “transaction rolls” we process already.

As long as it helps im happy buddy. I’ve got my EFTPOS terminal and client and server software, but I’ve got almost close to no knowledge on how to use API’s yet alone integrate it, even though I’ve looked into it a lot haha. You guys would probably have a better chance that I would at this. But I’m in the same boat as a lot of my clients have enquired about EFTPOS/PINPAD integration.

LOL!
Mate, every night I pass out around midnight thinking Hey, reckon I am getting there, only to wake up the next day faced with more challenges, scripts to write, HTML to build, Widgets, Reports, … all of which I have no or little experience yet :flushed:

@pauln only midnight :-p
Most of January when finishing up the PMS scripts I was doing at least two all nighters a week going stright from my desk to day job :wink:

I managed to find this site that gives examples of code that is written to communicate with pinpads/eftpos machines.

Thats the documentation for my testing machine :stuck_out_tongue:
