/// PoS · In-person Payments

The counter and the checkout, one business

A terminal that closes every sale on Gateway's order model: same charge, same receipt, same nightly settlement to the merchant's IBAN.

Every way a customer pays

Tap and insert work the way merchants expect — contactless or chip & PIN, Apple Pay on the same reader. Tips and receipts are set at the counter, and the sale closes on the spot with its auth code on the record.

/// 02

The merchant sees one business

The companion app shows takings as one stream, split by method, live. At night, everything settles to the merchant's IBAN as one line, so the accountant reconciles one figure a day.

  • [ 02 ]Per-order drill-down with receipts

/// 01

A terminal that acts like a terminal

The charge screen shows what every merchant expects: the total, €49.00, and the contactless zone, with Apple Pay, Mastercard, and Visa marked beneath. Tap and insert work exactly as they do everywhere else — and the reference, 9F21-0716, is the same order format the rest of the platform uses.

€1,284.50 across 32 payments — split by method, settling tonight.
/// 02

The merchant app

The companion app is the day at a glance: €1,284.50 across 32 payments, up 12% on last Thursday. A single bar splits it — card €1,102.10, cash €182.40 — with tips, average sale, and refunds beneath, and the settlement row says where it all lands: tonight, €1,271.66 after fees, RO49 •••• 0421. New charge sits in the tab bar, one tap away.

Seven terminals, one screen — the offline one found before the shift notices.
/// 03

The fleet on one screen

Seven terminals under one merchant, read at a glance: 5 online, 1 offline, 1 deactivated, with €4,182.30 taken today across 104 payments and the next batch at 23:00. Each row carries location, status, today's takings, and last-seen; selecting the offline studio-bar terminal shows its device ID, firmware, network, and battery — with ping, reassign, and deactivate one click away.

  • [ 01 ]Online, offline, and deactivated visible per terminal
  • [ 02 ]Takings and payment counts per device, live
  • [ 03 ]Ping, reassign location, deactivate from the detail panel
One €49.00 sale — items, entry, auth code, batch, and refund on one screen.
/// 04

Every sale, fully told

A payment opens into its whole story: €49.00 approved at 14:02 on T-01, the three line items, the €0.50 processing fee, card ••4417 by contactless with auth code 00A712, the customer's name, and the settlement batch it will ride tonight. Refund and send receipt sit at the bottom of the same screen.

Tips, receipts, language, firmware — the counter configures itself.
/// 05

Tips and receipts, set at the counter

The terminal's own settings cover what a counter actually argues about: tip prompts on or off with 5%, 10%, 15%, or a custom value — tips post as tip adjustments before the batch closes — and printed receipts, QR receipts, and e-mailed receipts each behind their own control. Below that, the device states its identity — language, device ID, firmware.

  • [ 01 ]Tip presets or a custom prompt, per terminal
  • [ 02 ]Paper, QR, or no receipt — the merchant chooses
  • [ 03 ]Language, device ID, and firmware visible on-device
/// And more

Nightly settlement to IBAN

At 23:00 the day's takings settle to the merchant's IBAN as one line. RO49 •••• 0421 in the demo. The accountant reconciles one number, not a list of payments.

Settlement batches as records

Every settlement is a batch with a name: tonight's sales ride B-0717-A, and each terminal shows its last batch and amount — B-0715-A at €312.40 on the studio-bar unit. A question about a payout starts from a batch ID, not a guess.

Takings by method, live

The split updates as payments land, so the day reads as one business with a method breakdown — not separate revenue streams in separate systems. When the mix moves, the merchant sees it the same afternoon, not in a month-end export.

The same order model as Gateway

The reference on the terminal is the same order format the hosted checkout uses, and the receipts match. A business running Gateway online and PoS at the counter runs one system with two surfaces, not two products.

Charges and refunds from the phone

New charge and refund live in the companion app, and the refund button sits on the sale itself. A refund points at the order — the same rule Gateway follows — so the merchant never has to remember how the customer paid before making it right.

Built to clear offline

Real venues lose connectivity at the worst moment. The terminals keep accepting offline — payments queue as deferred authorizations and submit with the next batch, deduplicated so reconnection never double-charges or loses a tap. A dead router is an inconvenience, not a closed till.

Terminal provisioning

A new terminal is registered from the fleet view, assigned a location, and retired the same way — the demo keeps a deactivated spare on the shelf. Devices carry their own IDs, so swapping hardware never confuses the books.

Remote diagnostics

Every terminal reports firmware, network, battery, and last-seen — and the fleet view can ping a device on demand. The studio-bar unit that went quiet on Jul 15 is diagnosed from a desk, not a drive across town.

Locations and pop-ups

Terminals carry locations — a front counter, a back office, a stand at Piața Amzei, two event kits marked on location. Reassigning a device to a weekend market is one action, and its takings still roll up to the same merchant.

Receipts three ways

Printed at the terminal, offered as a QR the customer scans, or sent from the app after the fact. The merchant copy has its own toggle, so the drawer does not fill with paper nobody asked for.

Cash in the picture

The split bar has a cash segment: €182.40 of the demo day. Cash sales are recorded alongside card payments, so today's €1,284.50 is actually today — not today minus the drawer.

Takings analytics

The fleet view keeps score beyond the total: 104 payments, an average ticket of €40.21 against €38.12 last week, takings per terminal. The merchant sees which counter earns before the month closes.

Staff accounts

The people behind the counter get their own accounts under the merchant, managed from the staff section. Who took a payment is a fact on the record, not a memory.

Customers on the sale

When the payer is known, the sale says so — A. Ionescu on the demo receipt. Payments connect to customers, so a regular's history is a lookup instead of a stack of anonymous tickets.

Search the fleet

Terminals are searchable by name or device ID, and payments by reference. When a customer calls about a charge, the answer starts with a search box, not a spreadsheet.

Exports

The fleet view and payment lists export to CSV as displayed. End-of-month is a download; the accountant never asks for screenshots.

Localization

The terminal speaks the counter's language — the language picker sits in the on-device settings. One fleet can serve venues that do not share a tongue.

An API for the counter

The developers section covers the counter too: payments and batches are queryable by API, so PoS data flows into whatever back office the merchant already runs.

Whitelabel terminals

Terminals run under your brand. The fleet, the app, and the receipts all follow — same hardware posture, your name on the screen.

/// FAQ

At the counter, answered.

  • Card payments taken offline queue as deferred authorizations and clear when the terminal reconnects — they still close into the day's batch. The fleet console flags a terminal that has dropped off, so you see it before a shift does.

  • The day's takings close into a named batch and settle overnight to your IBAN as a single line. Any payout question starts from the batch ID, not a search through transactions.

  • On your own named IBAN — RO49 ···· 0421 in the demo. The terminal fleet runs under your brand, and settlement lands where your books already are.

  • Same order and receipt model, different setting. Gateway is the hosted page for online checkout; PoS is the terminal at the counter. Counter and checkout reconcile as one business — same references, same receipts.

/// Pricing

How the terminal fleet is engaged.

[ 01 ]

Per-terminal license

Priced by the fleet in the field — the terminals you deploy — with each day's takings settling to one IBAN line.

[ 02 ]

Transaction-based

Cost on the takings the fleet processes rather than a per-device fee, so a terminal that sits idle costs nothing to run.

[ 03 ]

Whitelabel fleet

Deploy under your own brand and we run the fleet software for you — scope follows the terminals in service and the methods they accept.

What drives cost is the fleet — how many terminals are in the field — and the takings they process. Licensed as software, deployed whitelabel as your own.

/// Evaluate
