Exatouch gives you the ability to add Special Functions to your Register!  Special Functions include:  Order Type, Club, To-Go Item, Print To-Go, Quick Payout, Price Override, Undo Checkout Fee (Customer Service Fee), and Tax Exempt Item. By default, Special Functions are not found at the Register, but they can be easily added via custom buttons.

  • Warning: Exatouch versions 8.352 and earlier may not fully comply with recently implemented card brand requirements. Electronic Payments, Inc. strongly recommends you update to the latest version of Exatouch to meet these requirements.
  • Example: Any Special Function can be placed at the Register.  This is an example of the placement of the Special Function “Price Override”:
