Payment Setup

Register and assign payment terminals

Pair and assign a supported Stripe, Square or Clover terminal. Square Terminal works with MintLGS; Square Register, including SPS2-01, does not.

Before you start

  • Sales → Payment Setup → POS setup → Payment terminals
  • Your account needs Payments: Manage setup permission to open and configure Payment Setup. Viewing cash-drawer activity requires Payments: View status.

What success looks like

  • The checkout station shows its assigned terminal, which can be selected when taking card payments in POS.

Quick start

Choose the task you need. Each task has its own steps.

Register and assign a terminal

  1. 1Connect the payment provider before registering its terminal.
  2. 2In Registered terminals, follow the instructions for that provider. Use Pair Terminal to pair a supported device or Refresh Readers to retrieve readers already registered with the provider.
  3. 3Find the device by its provider and name. To make it easier to identify, click Rename, enter a name, and click Save.
  4. 4Find the checkout station and select the terminal from its assignment menu.
  5. 5Open POS at the station and check the terminal shown in the header before taking a card payment.

Remove a terminal assignment

  1. 1To remove an assignment, open Payment Setup → POS setup → Payment terminals, find the checkout station, and select No terminal assigned.

Troubleshooting

Choose the symptom that matches what you see.

Square says Unsupported Square Product

Use Square Terminal, the compact touchscreen device with a built-in receipt printer. Square Register (including SPS2-01), Square Stand, Square Reader and Square Tap to Pay cannot receive checkout requests from MintLGS browser POS. Changing the pairing code or reconnecting the Square account will not make those devices compatible. Keep your working account connection.

The reader does not appear

Check its provider connection and registration, then refresh readers.

A payment starts on the wrong reader

Check both the station assignment and the terminal selected in the current POS session.
