Payment Settings

Connect your card reader before taking payments at this station. Open More > Payment Settings. If your restaurant requires manager approval to change settings, a manager must approve before the screen opens.

The screen has cards for PAX, Stripe, MagTek, and Ingenico terminals. Contact Selflane support to set up an Ingenico terminal.

Tap the checkmark at the lower-left of the reader’s card to make it the default. The selected checkmark turns green.

PAX terminal

  1. Find the PAX terminal’s IP address:
    • On an S300, hold F and press 1. On an SP30, press F. Enter today’s date as the password in MMDDYYYY format (05052023 for May 5, 2023).
    • Go to Communication > LAN Parameters > IP Address, and write down every number and dot.
    • On a PAX A35, tap the top-left corner of the screen to see the IP address.
  2. In Payment Settings, tap Edit IP Address on the PAX card. If an address is already saved, tap the pencil beside it.
  3. Enter the IP address exactly as shown on the terminal, including the dots, and save it.
  4. Tap the PAX checkmark to make it the default.

Keep the iPad and PAX terminal on the same network.

Stripe reader

First complete your Stripe account and location setup.

  1. On the Stripe card, tap Connect. For an existing connection, tap Edit.
  2. Choose Location and Reader Type. If your account has no Stripe location yet, the POS asks you to create one first.
  3. Tap Discover <type> Readers for your reader type.
  4. Under Discovered Readers. Click to connect, tap the matching reader to connect it.
  5. Check that Connected Reader appears, then choose Stripe with its checkmark.

For Bluetooth or internet-connected hardware options, see Stripe Terminal.

MagTek reader

Save your processor credentials in MagTek Payments before connecting the reader.

  1. On the MagTek card, tap Connect. For an existing connection, tap Manage.
  2. Choose Bluetooth (Wireless) or USB / Lightning (Wired).
  3. For Bluetooth, tap Scan MagTek Devices and connect the matching reader. For a wired reader, attach it to the iPad.
  4. Check the connection status, then tap the MagTek checkmark to make it the default.

Tap to Pay on iPhone

Use a supported iPhone to accept contactless payments without a separate reader. In the Stripe connection screen, choose your Location and the Tap to Pay reader type. Tap to Pay appears only on devices that support it.

See Tap to Pay on iPhone for requirements and the first-payment prompts. This option is available on supported iPhones only.

What if the reader does not connect?

Check the saved IP address or selected Stripe location. Use the troubleshooting guide for your reader before taking another payment.
