If you've chosen to integrate your payment processing with one of our supported third-party payment processors, your payment terminal or card reader is encrypted for your security. This encryption also means that you can't use a payment terminal or card reader other than the one provided, as it will not be compatible with their services.
To set up your payment processing, follow the instructions specific to your payment processor, hardware, and region listed below.
If you've signed up with Lightspeed Payments, refer to Setting up Lightspeed Payments to learn how to set up your payment terminal.
