Terminal Capture/Host Capture

Terminal Capture and Host Capture

Terminal Capture: All transactions are stored in the terminal and must be sent to the Host for completion.

Host Capture: All transactions are sent to the Host for processing. The Host controls and closes the batch at set times. No batching is necessary at the local level unless you have made offline transactions.
