With the anny POS app, you process your users’ card payments right at the point of sale (POS). To do this, you simply connect a compatible reader over the network or via Bluetooth. Alternatively, you can use Tap to Pay on Android tablets to accept contactless payments with no extra hardware at all.

​
Who it’s for

This setup is ideal for admins and staff who take physical payments on site.
  • Coworking spaces with walk-in customers and day passes
  • Advisory services where payment happens right after the appointment
  • Event check-ins with last-minute ticket sales at the door
In short: perfect for anyone who wants to offer a professional, seamless payment experience at the front desk.

​
Where to find the feature

You set up your device once in the anny POS app during the payment process (checkout). Requirements:
  • You’ve downloaded the anny POS app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store.
  • You have a Stripe S700/S710 (network), a BBPOS WisePad 3 (Bluetooth) or a supported Android tablet.
The anny POS app is currently available exclusively for tablets (iPad OS and Android). Smartphones are not supported.

  2. Enter the default admin PIN 07139.
  3. Connect the reader to your local Wi-Fi.
  4. Tap Generate Pairing Code to create a pairing code.
  5. In the anny POS app, go to Pair reader at checkout.
  6. Choose the Network option and click Pair new reader.

  2. In the anny POS app, go to Pair reader at checkout.

Enable Tap to Pay on an Android tablet

  1. Open the anny POS app and create a booking up to checkout.
  2. Click Pair reader.
  3. Choose the Tap to Pay option.
  4. Your tablet is now set up to receive payments. To pay, customers simply hold their card or smartphone directly against your tablet.

When it makes sense

  • The one-time hardware setup makes sense when you handle regular customer traffic at a fixed location.
  • When you have walk-in customers who want to book and pay on site right away.
  • When you let customers settle open invoices for existing bookings at the front desk.
  • When you need a professional setup for direct customer contact.
After this quick configuration, your devices are ready to use for all future payments.

No. Once you’ve paired the device, it’s stored in your checkout and instantly selectable for every booking.
No, several tablets can’t use the same device, but you can connect several devices to one tablet.
No. In the app’s first release, only card payments through the reader or Tap to Pay are supported.
In principle this is possible, but these features aren’t available yet in the app’s first release. They’ll be added in future updates.

​
Troubleshooting

After the first pairing, a Bluetooth reader (like the WisePad 3) often runs a short firmware update. The update can take a few minutes. Please wait until the device shows that it’s finished on the display.
In this case, the anny POS app offers a fallback: a QR code appears on the tablet. The customer scans the code with their own smartphone, lands on the pay-later page and pays there independently with Apple Pay, Google Pay or PayPal.
