AirPrint

SimpleSpa can print using AirPrint, we have tested various POS printers with success on iOS, we recommend that you always test any device prior to purchasing, to enable AirPrint on any legacy printer it needs to always be connected to a Mac running as a server, and then you will need to install third party software like handyPrint to enable AirPrint

Cashdraw / Till

SimpleSpa will work with a cashdraw that connects to the printer and pops open when a receipt is sent to print. Please verify with your hardware vendor that your cashdraw will work like that.

POS Terminal

SimpleSpa is integrated with a large number of industry standard pos terminals via our partnering providers, if you have acquired a terminal from our partnering processor you can add it easily by going to your Settings > Locations > (Select your location) > Payments & Taxes there you can click the Add Terminal

You will have a new window pre-populated with your business information, please add the terminal serial number and a label that you would like to give that terminal for quick reference on the POS. Your terminal is now boarded and you can start processing Credit Cards from our POS with that terminal
