Pay by card is to complicated.

[Munin666]

Hello together,

normally everythink should get easier with pay by card and i have never seen a cashier in a supermarket who need to type in the price manually.

At the moment i really love it when there is a customer who pays with cash, because i love this small minigame ;) but when somebody wants to pay with card i have to click on the cardreader, type in every Number and the point by clicking on it, not even with my keyboard and have to accept by clicking again.

But in a supermarket it should work easier. Just click on pay by card, the price is still on the reader and the customer can pay. I really hope that this system will come in this game. Maybe as Upgradeable Option, or as default.

Totally agree on the cardreader!
this is also the reason I round up the prices to the nearest full 10’cents. Not even the 5’cents.

developers said there will be a update with it later on i hope its really soon i dont like the card reader half the time it doesnt read that i clicked on a number or the decimal point

Usually the customer just puts in his PIN. With the new cards not even that. Just lay the card on the reader and boom. Finished :D

[Vrathyas]

Agree.
If using a card, there should be no manual input anymore.

to me the card reader looks like a smart phone. in that case it would not be link to cash register and would have to manually push it the amount

But it has every card reader attachements on it....
However, if you have a smart system in your store, you can connect your smartphone with this system. I have seen this often enough in restaurants.

Normally the total price should be send to the card reader when you just press that the customer wants to pay with card.

I agree. It should just be a touch to pay or something. O fit they insist on making enter the numbers, we should be able to use our keyboard to type instead.

it would be more practical to add the numbers with the numeric keypad

I hope the devs fix this. One of the reasons for paying by card is so things are easier. It is not any easier when you have to manually enter the total amount

Yes. I actually pay by using my watch. Very convenient

Yes and this is the reason why i think that just typing in the price with the numpad is not the best solution. You still type in the price manually. Just make a button on the display "pay with card"... and thats all.

Maybe can we be authorized to use the "keypad" to enter more quickly the amount ? Or like others top comment : automatisation with a paid upgrade ? :o
Game looks cool though !

Yip, I came to see if someone had made a topic. I had to stop playing just now as my right arm (that I use the mouse for) has started to hurt because I am having so many card transactions.
I noticed someone said this already, but I also have trouble with it not reading meaning I have to click a few extra times (or remove the previous entry to add in a number it missed).

I'd love to have the option to enter the price with the keypad. A lot of shops in my area still have the staff member enter the price.

Or could do a tiny mini game of 'swiping' the card perhaps. I know its the customers card and they would do that, but trying to think of another method.

I would be OK with being able to use the number pad. As far as the keystrokes, I price everything in increments of 50 cents, or full dollar amounts. 75% of all my transactions are even dollars, and the rest are 50 cents. This saves a LOT of time when entering in the values.

maybe have the card reader upgradable?
