SRM, Texada Pay

Context

In order to be able to accept payments using Texada Pay, you must first set up your company’s SRM (Systematic Rental Management) application to be able to accept specific types of payments.  For example, if you company accepts in person payments for cash customers, or on file payments for on account customers, you must set up Texada Pay to accept card reader payments, or on file payments.  

 

Types of payment

There are three main types of payments you can enable Texada Pay to accept. It is important to understand each type as this information is used when you process payment later:

  • Type A
    • Payments processed by using a physical debit or credit card in your card reader hardware
    • Type F
      • Payments processed either manually or automatically using an on-file credit card or bank account 
      • Type M
        • Payments processed manually over the phone using a credit card or bank account that is not already on file

        You can set up some or all of these payment types during this process to suit the needs of your business. For example, if you do not accept payments over the phone, then you would not set up Type M payments.
