Point of Sale

Configure Taler payment for point of sale

  • Allowing Taler payment on the point-of-sale app requires a few more steps than regular online payments.

  • Preliminary steps:

  • Create the Point of Sale payment method:

    • On the top bar, press Configuration -> Payment Methods.

    • Create a new Payment Method.

      • Name it Taler (You can call it something else, but Taler is easier to keep track of).

      • Check the Online Payment checkbox.

      • Select Taler in the Allowed Providers field.

  • Add Taler to the point of sale:

    • Make sure that the point of sale register is closed for this step.

    • On the top bar, press Configuration -> Point of Sales, you will be redirected to the point of sale list.

    • Select the point of sale you’d like to add Taler payment to.

    • Click on More settings: Configurations > Settings, which will lead you to the point of sale’s settings page.

      • Alternatively, you can access this page by going to Settings through the app switcher (top-left button), then going to Point of Sale section, and selecting the point of sale that you would like to modify.

    • In Payment -> Payment Methods, add the payment method you just created (generally Taler).

  • The setup is now complete, and you can select this new payment provider when a customer pay for an order on the Point of sale that you added the payment method to.
