How to Setup Stripe Terminal Device

In this blog, we will learn how to set up a Stripe terminal device with POS.

To connect the Stripe terminal device the admin needs to sign up or log in with the Stripe account.

After logging in, the admin is directed to the home page, where they must then proceed to select “More > Terminal” from the menu options to set up Stripe terminal.

After selecting the “Terminal” option, the admin should proceed to add a location by clicking on the “+ New” button.

Selecting “+ New”, the admin must proceed to establish a new location for their POS (Point of Sale) terminal setup.

After creating the location, the admin should select the newly created location and then proceed to click on “+ Register reader”.

After clicking on “+ Register reader”, the admin needs to enter the registration code and Reader label to set up the Stripe terminal device.

Note: When the admin starts their terminal, they will receive the registration code during the initial setup process.

Once the code and reader label have been entered, the admin has the option to include multiple terminal devices.
