# Settle An Order By Card

> Record a Visa or card terminal payment and close the order.

Use card settlement when the customer pays by Visa, Mastercard, or another card method on an external terminal, and the cashier needs Plato to record that payment against the order.

## Get The Order Ready

Send or prepare the order, then click `Pay`.

## Record The Payment

After the terminal approves the payment, click `Record`.
