I have a physical store and use Virtual Terminal for charges. I've lost a few sales recently due to the 2 problems below. How do I use Virtual Terminal when: 1. PayPal's Virtual Terminal service is down (yep, this happened to me!)? 2. My internet service provider is down and I couldn't get on the internet to access PayPal (bad weather, service was down, couldn't process several sales)? Do I purchase old-style charge forms and keep them at the store, write the charge info on them, and type this info in later in my VT account - and hope the charge card was good? Or, make a photocopy of the card? Or....??? Thank you!
