  1. Your system initiates the transaction by sending the pay command to the VPOS terminal.
  2. The VPOS enables the reader, detects the card, and processes the payment. Upon success, it returns an OK response to your system.
  3. Your system sends a displayScreen command to the VPOS to show the confirmation message: “Thank you.”
  4. If a physical record is needed, your system triggers the print command.
