Most times, "connect fail" has nothing to do with the card reader. It you are not renting a FortiGate from us, then the first thing you will need to do is provide us with your current Static IP address. If you do not know your Static IP address, then contact your IT person. We highly recommend that you reach out to us to discuss switching your account over from Static IP to FortiGate in order to have a higher success rate of successful transactions.
Please help us prevent fraud, a risk to your bottom line.
As use of the ZAGCARD grows, please be sure to adhere to these guidelines to minimize the amount of fraudulent claims made by cardholders. Typically, fraud is not an issue due to the picture found on the front of the ZAGCARD. However, it is recommended that you ask your employees to follow these suggested steps, in particular when dealing with deliveries and manual entry of the card number:
- When taking orders for delivery, please let the person know that you will be checking their ZAGCARD at the time of the delivery. Let them know that the person accepting the delivery must be the actual cardholder who is paying for the transaction. When making the actual delivery, please be sure of the following:
- The photo on the card is the person that placed the order
- The person signs the receipt
Please note that any fraudulent activity that occurs due to not following the above guidelines may result in monetary restitution and a chargeback fee.
Please remember these key policies:
- Merchants are not allowed to impose any surcharge, levy or fee for those using their Bulldog Bucks for payment. This includes enacting a minimum amount charge on their purchases or an additional fee or a mandatory charge for gratuity or any other service/product.
- No alcohol, tobacco, cannabis and all related products including drug paraphernalia, firearms and/or ammunition/explosives, stored value gift cards and/or debit cards, pornography, contraception and lottery tickets to be purchased with Bulldog Bucks. If the person is of legal age, they may still purchase these items, but they must provide another form of payment.
Please note that non-adherence to these policies may result in suspension and removal from the program. For additional information, please review your Business Service Operating Agreement.
