Hi. How can we help?

About payments

Payments and payment processing allow your restaurant to make sales. Before you begin processing payments in Restaurant POS, you’ll need to set up payments by adding payment types.

Understanding Payments in Restaurant Manager

The Payments section of Restaurant Manager allows you to create payment types, add payment terminals, configure payment processing, and access information about gift cards.Screenshot of Restaurant Manager Payment page.

Understanding Payments in the Restaurant POS app

The Payments section of the Restaurant POS app allows you to process payments and tips, split bills, and void receipts. 

  1. Open the Restaurant POS app.
  2. From the Order screen, tap the Pay icon.Screenshot of Restaurant POS app Payment page.
  • Receipt: Receipts display the total order amount, the amount that has already been paid, and the remaining balance. Tap on a receipt to open its order details and process payment for the order.
  • Order items: Order items display information related to the item names, the quantities ordered, and the price. To quickly move an order item to another receipt, tap-and-hold the three bars icon and drag the item to the other receipt.
  • Receipt ID: The receipt ID is shown under the order items on the Payment screen.
  • Taxes: If applicable, the receipt's taxes will show in line with the Receipt ID on the Payment screen.
  • Total Due: The total amount owed for the receipt displayed.
  • Payment Types: Depending on your Restaurant Manager configurations, the available payment types/methods will show here. If there are more than eight payment types configured, you can swipe left/right to scroll through them.
  • Finalize: Once a payment is processed, tap Finalize to close the order and return to the Tables screen.

Once a receipt is finalized, you can not apply any further payment methods until you unfinalize it.
