    If the transaction is successful, Loyverse POS will display the total paid amount on the screen, where you may then print the receipt, send the receipt to your email, or go to the new sale.

    In case of an error in the transaction, Loyverse POS will display an error message and print the receipt for the canceled transaction.

    You can return to the ‘select payment type’ screen. You can ask the customer to choose a different type of payment (for example ‘Cash’) or try another card.
