# Customer Payment Method Selection

### Customer Payment Method Selection

You can configure the terminal to ask the customer if they want to pay with cash or with a card. When you enable the cash or card question, the operator enters the amount of the sale before passing the terminal to the customer. The customer then touches the payment method they want to use to continue the transaction.

By default, the cash or card question is disabled.

#### **To enable or disable the customer payment method selection:**

1. From the main screen, touch **Settings**.
