Hotel front desk cashier on the specific operation of credit cards and checks!

First of all, there are five kinds of wild cards: VISA

grasp

diner

excavator

American

Express delivery, pre-authorization or consumption of wild cards is the simplest. According to the operation of the POS machine (the foreign card has a special POS machine, which is generally provided by the Bank of China), it is ok to swipe the card directly, and generally you don't need to enter a password. When the guest has insufficient deposits, you can directly obtain authorization manually. It is also very simple for wild card guests to check out and log off, and the offline amount can be increased by 15%. For example, if the guest pre-authorizes 1000, but the actual consumption amount exceeds 1000, you can at least make the offline transaction amount of 1 150 on the pre-authorized 1000. The validity period of pre-authorization of foreign cards is generally 15 days, so the authorization of long-term guests needs to be checked regularly to avoid the expiration of authorization.

Domestic cards generally need passwords to operate on POS machines, and so does authorization. The difference is that foreign cards are offline and domestic cards are pre-authorized, which is actually an attribute. However, it should be noted that the pre-authorization amount of the credit card is preferably less than or equal to the pre-authorization amount. Unlike a wild card, if you exceed it, you may not get money from the bank ~

The difference is simple. The type of card is clearly marked on the wild card. Domestic cards only need to identify the logos of UnionPay and the issuing bank. Of course, some dual-currency cards will have two logos: VISA and UnionPay.

Well, checks are more complicated, generally divided into cash checks and transfer checks. As long as the front desk can distinguish the types of checks and fill in the amount on the checks correctly, the rest will be handed over to the finance department in the background.
