It was a register prompt. Apparently Chase Pay transactions over a certain amount ($100?) triggered the prompt which precluded the cashier from completing the transaction (which was approved by Chase). There was a window in the cashier's screen to record driver license info. It could not be overridden by a manager.

Later, the same amount using the actual Chase Freedom Visa plastic card went through without any prompt, but earned only a 4% bonus.
