POS Payment Hardware FAQs 

Who is the primary contact for POS terminal support? 
The Everyware Customer Success team will be the primary contact for setup, testing, troubleshooting etc. 
 
Estimated Time of Arrival on device shipments? How long until my device comes in the mail?
Once your merchant account is approved for Card-Present payments, your devices will be configured for your Everyware account and then ship within approximately 5-7 days. You will receive an email when you are approved and another when your devices are shipped. The Everyware Customer Success team will track your shipment and delivery to make sure everything arrives as planned and will inform you of any delays. 
 
How do I return a device that is not working?
Let the Everyware Customer Success team know what isn't working first and we'll try to troubleshoot the issues with you. If we can't fix the problem or if there's something wrong with the hardware, we'll work with you to get a replacement terminal.    
 
Can I connect multiple POS payment terminals with one Everyware site? 
Yes. You can connect many terminals to your Everyware sales site as long as they're supported by the same POS system. A Clover POS terminal for example, cannot be connected to a Sales Site that is integrated with another POS terminal-type such as an Ingenico Lane/3000.  
 
Do the integrated terminals support tap to pay (NFC Capable)?
Yes. Near Field Communication (NFC) payments are available with Everyware-supported POS payment terminals, meaning when a contactless payment-enabled card taps or hovers over the terminal their payment information will transfer wirelessly. 
 
Do the integrated terminals have chip readers (EMV Capable)?
Yes, the terminals integrated with Everyware include an EMV application for processing chip card transactions. Customers with chip-enabled cards can "dip" or insert their chips into the chip readers to transmit their payment information. 
 
Can my customers use ApplePay at the Everyware payment terminals (Digital Wallet Capable)?
Not yet.  But we do plan to add this capability in the future.
 
Where do I find device credentials to connect to Everyware? 
We will walk you through device set-up for the first time, which begins with syncing your pre-configured device to your Everyware account in the POS Settings tab 'Sync Terminals" button. You do not need to obtain any names or passwords outside of your Everyware login credentials. 
 
What do I do if my POS transactions fail? 
Contact Everyware Customer Support and provide details about the circumstances of the transaction. The card may have been declined by the issuer or the hardware could have malfunctioned. We will troubleshoot with you. If all else fails, consider logging into the Everyware payment portal and sending your customer an invoice by text as an alternative.
 
Are USB or Wi-Fi connections supported by Everyware payment terminals? 
Not yet, but will be added very soon to the lineup of supported makes/models. 
 
How are the annual SSL certs pushed to the devices each year?
Everyware currently integrates with the Lane/5000 or the Lane/3000 which are Ethernet-only. 
 
Who handles the device firmware updates and how is that processed?
Everyware will push any updates to terminals remotely. Terminals automatically reboot every morning and if there are updates you will see them on the terminal once they have been picked up and installed. 
 
How are the Terminal IP addresses configured?
Terminals are configured before they're shipped. Once you receive them there should be no additional configuration needed, only an outbound internet connection so the terminal can connect to the payment gateway.
 
Do we get test devices in the mail first, then live ones?
POS Terminal integration is a standard Everyware offering. If your business is ordering devices in bulk or utilizing APIs to integrate terminal functions with your system, your Everyware Solutions Engineer will help build a testing and go-live plan for integrated payment hardware. We will need to provision separate test and live configured hardware as it is not possible to reassign test hardware with live environment credentials. i.e. You'd always keep one test device and one live device if it is necessary to test larger, more complex integrations for your business.
