When do we use this?
Some patrons may be paying for permits with either credit card or payroll deductions that can be set to select payment type and process the payment automatically when performing rollovers on permits in lots. This article will demonstrate how this feature works, and how to recognize what is processed automatically as opposed to payments that will have to be made through other manual methods.
Note: You must have a Gateway that allows you to charge client cards directly. This cannot work for a system that is set for Hosted Payments only.
*The following are important steps to complete before you can rollover your lot permits to the next Allocation and auto-pay relevant permits. The steps are outlined below.
If Using Credit Cards on File to Purchase Recurring Permits
There are two prerequisites to this function working correctly for credit card purchases on rollover. The user must have a valid credit card registered in the system, and the card must be designated as the Prime Credit Card. In addition the user must have previously paid for this permit with this card in another Allocation period.
