Before you begin
Before setting up your payment processing with the Yomani, please:

Checklist
- Set up an account for your business with Tyro and purchase a Yoximo terminal (https://www.tyro.com/).
- Check that you've received an email from Tyro that has your gateway credentials (your Username and Password) and Tyro Merchant Portal credentials. You'll need your gateway credentials to setup your Tyro gateway in Retail POS and your Tyro Merchant Portal credentials to log in and view your Tyro costs, fees, invoices, statements, transactions, surcharges and more. If you haven't received an email, check your spam folder or contact Tyro Customer Support.
- Check that you've received your Yomani from Tyro. For tracking information, please contact Tyro Customer Support.
- Once your Yomani is powered on (see below for instructions), contact Tyro Customer Support to activate it. You'll need your business trading name and the serial number located on the bottom of the terminal.
- Contact our Retail Support team to add the necessary modules to your Retail account. You'll need them to process card payments with Tyro.
Power on the Yomani
Open the box your Yomani arrived in and gather the following contents:
- Yomani terminal
- Power supply unit
- Ethernet cable
Once you've gathered all of the contents, power on the Yomani by connecting one end of the power supply unit (PSU) to a power source and the other end to the power port under the terminal base. Connecting the Yomani to your network with the Ethernet cable will be covered in Step 2 of this article.
Gateway features
- To refund a sale back to your customer's card, you need to process the card on the Yomani. Refunds by reference back to the original card (without inserting or swiping it at the terminal) are not supported.
- To void a payment on an in-progress sale, you need to process a refund of the same amount on the Yomani.
- To refund a deposit back to your customer's card in Retail Manager mode, you need to process the card on the Yomani. Refunds by reference back to the original card (without inserting or swiping it at the terminal) are not supported.
- If you have surcharges enabled with Tyro and would like to include the surcharge in a refund in Retail POS, please see Refunding surcharges with Tyro.
1. Set your location and currency
To process payments with Tyro, the location in your Retail account needs to be set to Australia and its currency set to AUD. To do so:
- Sign in to Retail POS.
- From the main menu, tap Retail Manager > Settings.
- Tap General Options.
- Under Location Customization, select the following:
- Location: Australia
- Currency: AUD
- Tap Save Changes.
2. Connect the Yomani to your network
If you haven't already, power on the Yomani by connecting one end of the Power Supply Unit (PSU) to a power source and the other end to the power port under the terminal base. Once it's powered on, connect the Yomani to your network. You can do this via an Ethernet connection or a 3G connection. At Lightspeed, we recommend and include setup instruction for Ethernet connections. If you'd like to use a 3G connection, please visit Tyro Smart Help or contact Tyro Customer Support for setup instructions.
To connect the Yomani to your network via an Ethernet connection:
- Complete Tyro's Network Connectivity Test to confirm that your network is configured correctly to communicate with Tyro.
- Connect one end of the Ethernet cable into the network port under the terminal base.
- Connect the other end of the Ethernet cable into a spare port on your network device (modem, router or switch).
3. Configure your Tyro gateway
Next, you need to configure your Tyro gateway in Retail POS. To do so, you need your Tyro credentials (your Username and Password).

- Username
- Password
- If you have a multi-store account, under Select Shops, select all the shops that will use the Tyro gateway.
- Under Credit Card Payment Mapping, select how the credit and debit card types will appear on your receipts and reports. For example, if you have a custom Visa payment type, selecting it from the Visa drop-down will mark all Visa payments as Visa instead of Credit on your receipts and reports. To assign custom payment types (e.g. Visa) from these drop-downs, however, you need to create them in Retail Manager > Settings > Payment Types.
