    • Credit Card: swipe the credit card on the Card Reader and click "Authorize".
    • Manual Credit Card Entry: select the "Credit Card" button and select "Enter card manually". A box will pop up, prompting you to enter the card number,  expiration date, and the card's security code. Click "Authorize".
