FAQs

Is there any way to display the logo on the terminals like we could on the Adyen Terminals? 

Hello SimonR,

Thank you for the question. It is possible to change logo on the terminal.

Prepare your brand logo image based on the following requirements:

The image must be:

  • Image Size:1080W x 1920H
  • JPG, PNG, or GIF format
  • Less than 2MB for JPG and PNG
  • Less than 4MB for GIF

Send the request with the attached image to [email protected] and we will change it for you.

Best Regards,

Olga

Hi @Oli.Britt, 

I have one of the terminals for testing, just waiting to get it provisioned so i can test. 

Curious what the camera is for on the back of the unit. Can you advise the use case?

Thanks

Hey @Mick  Good question. The camera has no function right now. In the future this may be used for a payment method which requires scanning a qr code on a guest's phone.
