We occasionally take our products on the road to trade shows several times a year and we have a Nurit wireless credit card processor which has been a lifesaver (70% of sales are plastic).

The question has to do with the signed merchant copy the machine spits out. What to do with them, and how long to keep them? We asked our merchant processor and they passed the buck and told us to "Check with your accountant" which of course really doesn't make much sense.

At one time I tried configuring the machine to accept DIGITAL signatures by having the customer sign the touch pad instead of a receipt, but the Nurit pad seems overly sensitive so it often perceived some signature movements as kind of a double-click and saved the signature prematurely so we shut that off.
