POS Gateway connects your point of sale to your CardPointe terminals through Mojo Payments’ cloud, so there’s no payment server to run in the store. It’s turned on by Mojo Payments and billed per location it’s on at. You’ll find it under Settings → POS Gateway.

Turning it on at a location

Each location is turned on separately (and billed for each location it’s on at). Turning a location off stops its registers taking payments through the gateway at once.

MIDs

The gateway uses each MID’s CardPointe login from Card Processing. A MID shows Ready once its login is set; until then its registers can’t take payments.

Register keys

Each register gets its own key, made for one terminal:
1

Choose the location

The location the register is at.
2

Choose the terminal

From the terminals CardPointe lists for that location, by the name you gave them in CardPointe.
3

Create the key

The key is named after the terminal. Copy the secret now: it’s shown only once.
4

Download the register setup (on-premises POS)

While the secret is on screen, Download register setup gives a zip with the Mojo Payments CLI, its settings and this key, ready for the register. Choose Passport if that’s your POS. See Installing the CLI.
Give the key id and secret, or the register’s setup download, to whoever sets up your POS (Connecting a point of sale). A key works only with its terminal and its location’s MIDs. A key with no terminal is for back-office work (voids, refunds, look-ups). Revoke a key to stop it at once, for example when a register is replaced.

Terminal settings

Each location’s terminals can behave differently. The settings are grouped the way a sale runs: Locations you don’t change use the defaults. Back to the defaults resets a location.

Gateway version

Each location shows which version of the gateway it runs. Mojo Payments may move a location to a new version (for example to try a new feature) and can move it back; you’ll hear from us first.

Calls

Calls lists every call your registers made through the gateway: when, what (sale, void, look-up…), the location, amount and result. Payments themselves are in CardPointe.
