Independent Control for PIN and Signature Debit (CloudPOS)
Merchants can now configure PIN Debit and Signature Debit behavior separately under the existing “Treat Debit as Cash” functionality in the Portal. The configured settings are reflected in CloudPOS, allowing fees to be applied or removed independently based on how the debit transaction is processed.
Feature Compatibility
- Minimum Required POS Build: 10170
- Supported Channels:
- CloudPOS (Pay Now, Send Payment Link, PINpad)
- Invoices (Itemized Billing)
- GHPP (Generated Hosted Payment Page)
What’s New
Two parameters are available under Dual Pricing to control debit behavior:
- PIN Debit – Controls fee application for debit transactions authenticated using a PIN (applicable only for PINpad transactions)
- Signature Debit – Controls fee application for debit transactions processed without a PIN
Behavior
| Condition | Result |
|---|---|
| PIN Debit is enabled | Fee is removed (treated as cash) |
| PIN Debit is disabled | A fee is applied |
| Signature Debit is enabled | Fee is removed |
| Signature Debit is disabled | Fee is applied |
| Treat Debit as Cash is disabled | A fee is applied for all transactions |

Additional Behavior (CloudPOS)
When using PINpad:

- If no PIN → Signature Debit logic is applied
For Pay Now / Send Payment Link:

- PIN Debit is applicable only for PINpad transactions
- Both parameters work independently to control fee behavior
- Backward compatibility is maintained
- If parameters are not configured, the system follows the existing Treat Debit as Cash behavior
