This document describes operation procedures to be performed on a FasCard reader by an attendant or manager. It provides information regarding FasCard collections and their associated reports as well as non-standard machine start methods.

A collection should be performed on the FasCard reader any time cash is collected from the associated machine. Performing the collection when cash is collected will keep coin counts current in the Coin/Cash Totals report.

Collections may be performed by users with the Admin or Collector privileges as configured on the FasCard Admin Site - User Accounts page.

The FasCard Super Card allows machines to be started in the event of a satellite or internet connectivity failure. In the event of an outage, the credit/debit functionality of the FasCard system will be unavailable. Coin purchases will continue to function as normal and Loyalty purchases will remain available for the last 5000 cards used in the system. Machines can be started by swiping the Super Card- pulse configurations will start automatically whereas serial configurations may ask the user to confirm the cycle selection on the card reader. Card readers displaying 'Machine Start: Free' still require the confirmation button to be pressed on the card reader.
Machines can be started without a Loyalty Card by using the Mobile app and a phone's camera to read the QR matrix code on the reader. See FasCard Loyalty Site - Quick Start for more information.
