Card payment
Customers pay by card or TWINT on the Freika PAX IM30 payment terminal next to the kiosk. The kiosk sends the amount to the terminal over the internet, so nobody types anything in.
Why it matters
Payment without staff
Card or TWINT
Customers pay at the terminal the way they do in any other shop. You don’t count a till or keep change.
No amount to type
The kiosk hands the amount straight to the terminal, so there is nothing to mistype.
Every payment in the dashboard
Each purchase is listed under “Orders” with its status and payment brand, for example TWINT, Visa or Postcard.
At the kiosk
How your customers pay
Four steps from a full basket to the receipt.
1 Add the items
Customers scan their products or pick them on the screen.
2 Tap to pay
One tap on “Pay CHF … with card / TWINT”. The kiosk shows: “Please pay for your purchase at the card reader.”
3 Pay at the terminal
The terminal already has the amount. Customers pay by card or TWINT. If they cancel, they are taken back to the basket.
4 Take the receipt
The kiosk confirms with “Thank you for your purchase!” and shows the receipt as a QR code. With receipt printing switched on, it can print it too.
In the dashboard
Trace every card payment
Which terminal belongs to which kiosk and how each payment ended: you see it in the cloud dashboard. These images are taken straight from it.
