What you need to install your point of sale

To ensure a smooth installation—whether handled by your team or a Smeetz representative—please follow the steps below.

Updated yesterday

This guide includes technical requirements, setup instructions, and operational best practices to guarantee your point of sale (POS) works seamlessly on-site.

1. Before installation

Ensure technical prerequisites

  • Electricity: make sure there are working power outlets where you want to set up your POS

  • Internet access: you’ll need either a private Wi-Fi connection or an ethernet cable

    • avoid using public Wi-Fi

    • use a 4G/5G hotspot if Wi-Fi is weak

    • have the network name and password ready

Prepare your POS configuration

2. Install and test equipment in advance

Plan ahead to avoid last-minute issues. Ideally, you should set up and test everything a few weeks before launch.

Please follow our installation guides.

Note that electronic devices drain quickly—keep them near a power source or use extension cords.

Test the setup

After setup, run several tests to confirm everything is working properly.

Example test scenarios

  • Confirm the POS configuration matches your sales setup

  • Process a test card payment → check if the payment terminal reacts

  • Cancel a payment → ensure it reverses correctly

  • Process a test cash payment → confirm the cash drawer opens

  • Print a test receipt

  • Scan a test booking with both a datalogic and a zebra scanner

  • Validate that scanned bookings are correctly recognized in the POS

If something doesn’t work, refer to our troubleshooting guides:
