💰 How to take payments with your terminal
💰 How to take payments with your terminal
1. Use your terminal at checkout
Since your terminal is integrated with SmartRec, you'll have the option to use the terminal at checkout when making a purchase on behalf of your client.
When you click Make payment, SmartRec securely sends the payment request to Adyen. The terminal displays the total amount and waits for the client’s card input.
Once the payment is approved, SmartRec automatically updates the client’s billing and marks the invoice as paid.
If there’s no response after 60 seconds, SmartRec cancels the attempt automatically to prevent duplicate charges.
❗ The integrated terminal cannot be used for subscriptions or installments.
At step 3 of the checkout process:
Select Pay with terminal.
If you have multiple integrated terminals, select which one to use.
To print a payment receipt from the terminal (for S1F2 only), apply a tick to Print terminal receipt.
Click Make payment. A blue progress bar will appear with 'Waiting for terminal response'.
Use the integrated terminal to take the client's payment.
When successful, the transaction is relayed to the checkout and the payment confirmation screen appears (within a minute).
Click Print from the confirmation screen if you need to provide a paper copy of the invoice to the client ( standard printer or thermal receipt printer). Otherwise, you can print a paper invoice directly from the client's account.
🟦 Note: While the blue Waiting for terminal response bar is active, do not refresh or navigate away. The payment will complete automatically once confirmed.
🟦If at least one item in the cart includes installments or recurring billing, the Pay with terminal option will not appear.
2.Use the terminal in point of sale
First, click on the Point of Sale>Workstations subtab, and select a workstation.
Include the Terminal as an accepted payment mode.
Choose the terminal to associate with this workstation.
Proceed with the client order.
👉 Receipt printer selection: Keep this field blank unless you're using an independent thermal printer.
Next, proceed with your client order as usual:
When ready, click on the terminal icon to pay.
Choose the terminal (if multiple).
Click Make payment. A blue progress bar will appear with 'Waiting for terminal response'. Use the integrated terminal to take the client's payment.
When successful, the transaction is relayed to SmartRec and the payment confirmation screen appears (within a minute).
Two buttons are available to print a paper copy of the invoice and/or receipt with your regular printer.
3. Use your terminal and print receipts in the client's billing
In the client’s account, open Client Billing and click Make payment.
Select Credit card – Integrated terminal as the payment type.
Choose your terminal and check Print terminal receipt if desired.
Click Make payment. A blue progress bar will appear with 'Waiting for terminal response'. Use the integrated terminal to take the client's payment.
When successful, the transaction is relayed to SmartRec and the payment confirmation screen appears (within a minute).
🖨️ How to print a paper copy of the receipt
You can use your regular printer to print a paper copy of a payment receipt at any time, regardless of when a payment was processed through an integrated terminal.
Access the Client Billing subtab in the client's file:
Click on the + icon on the payment record and select View Payment.
You'll notice an additional section on the payment receipt when using an integrated terminal. The EMV details serve as proof of a successful terminal transaction and reflects how the card was used (swiped, contactless chip or card not present).
To print a paper copy, click the Print button on the upper right-hand corner of the receipt. Clients also have access to their invoices and receipts in their user account.
✅ You’re all set!
Your Adyen terminals are ready to use for secure, in-person payments through SmartRec. Keep them charged and connected for a seamless checkout experience.
Frequently asked questions
What's the difference between the integrated terminal and the offline terminal?
Adyen's payment terminal is directly linked to your organization's SmartRec account. It's a visible, online payment option administrators can use at checkout in the online store, in the Point of Sale feature, as well as when making a payment in the client's billing file. In addition, successful payment transaction details are automatically updated in the client's billing.
An offline terminal is not to be confused with an integrated terminal. An offline terminal can process payments through your merchant account, but it doesn't 'communicate' with SmartRec, which means it doesn't update payment details in the client's account. This means admins would need to manually update the client's billing with a payment entry. What a hassle!
What happens if a payment transaction is unsuccessful? How will I know?
The integrated terminal will process a transaction and deliver a successful payment response within 60 seconds. If it takes any longer, the payment has failed.
SmartRec will display an error message specifying whether the transaction has timed out, the payment is refused, or the terminal is offline (i.e. not connected to the WiFi). If the transaction has timed out or the payment is refused, you can attempt to pass the credit card again, use a different card, or accept a different payment method.
Is it possible to cancel/refund a payment made with the integrated terminal?
If a payment made with an integrated terminal needs to be cancelled, locate the payment record in the Client's billing.
If the payment was made the same day, you will have the option to 'Cancel Payment', which refunds the client's card without incurring additional transaction fees to your organization.
A new screen appears:
Add comments if necessary and then click Cancel payment.
If the payment was made on a previous day, you may 'Refund' it to the same credit card that was used with the integrated terminal. Keep in mind $0.30 additional transaction fees are charged to your organization.
Before you can refund, the client must have a credit balance in their account. This can be achieved by canceling the original invoice for which the payment was made. If you don't wish to cancel the invoice, you must first create a credit, and then proceed with refunding the online payment.
What are the EMV details on the payment receipt?
The EMV details serve as proof of a successful terminal transaction and reflects how the card was used (swiped, contactless chip or card not present).
AID: An application identifier (AID) is used to address an application in the card or Host Card Emulation (HCE) if delivered without a card. An AID consists of a registered application provider identifier (RID) of five bytes, which is issued by the ISO/IEC 7816-5 registration authority. It's essentially a number to track the contactless financial transaction taking place between a point-of-sale terminal and a remotely hosted secure element containing financial payment card data (i.e. credit card issuer, e-wallet provider).
TVR: Terminal verification results (TVR) is an EMV data object. The TVR is a series of bits set by the terminal reading an EMV card, based on logical tests (for example has the card expired). This data object is used in the terminal's decision whether to accept, decline or go online for a payment transaction.
IAD: IAD is Issuer Application Data, which is given by the chip to the terminal, for passing on to the issuer.
TSI: Transaction Status Indicator. A record of things that happened during the transaction. This field is expected to mainly be ones.
ARC: The ARC is a value that is returned from the card issuer during online processing, or is generated by the terminal in the event that the terminal makes a decision as to the final transaction outcome during Terminal Action Analysis.
Which report shows payments made with an integrated terminal?
You can download the Breakdown of payments report from the Reports tab.
Can I use the terminal to scan memberships in Access Management?
We don't recommend using the terminal for any other purpose than taking payments. In the future we will look into expanding the integration for other use cases in SmartRec.
Which types of payment does the integrated terminal support?
The terminal's contactless payment system supports near field communication for making secure payments with credit cards and interac (for Canadian organizations only). This means clients can simply tap their credit card on the device screen to pay.
Additionally, the terminal supports chip & pin, chip & signature, card swiping and contactless phone payments using NFC technology, which means clients can pay with an e-wallet (e.g. Google Pay, Apple Pay, etc.).
What happens if my terminal goes offline?
If a terminal goes offline:
Check that Wi-Fi is active and stable
Make sure the terminal is powered or charged
Ensure it’s not in sleep mode
Payments can’t be processed while the terminal is offline.
Do the S1F2 and AMS1 terminals support cellular (4G) connectivity?
Yes , but with an important distinction.
The S1F2 and AMS1 terminals include cellular failover, meaning they can automatically switch to a mobile network if Wi-Fi is temporarily unavailable.
You don’t need to insert your own SIM card or purchase a separate mobile plan. Each device already includes an Adyen-managed SIM, which activates automatically during a Wi-Fi outage to keep payments running smoothly.
This feature is designed as a backup connection, not a permanent replacement for Wi-Fi.
What can I expect to see on my printed receipts?
Below is an example of a printed receipt following a successful transaction.
Your printed receipt will display key transaction details, including:
Date and time of the transaction
Card information (last 4 digits, type, and issuing bank)
Entry mode (e.g., Contactless, Chip, or Swipe)
Authorization code and reference number
Amount paid and status (e.g., APPROVED)
EMV details for proof of a valid transaction, such as:
AID – Application Identifier
MID – Merchant ID
TID – Terminal ID
PTID – Physical Terminal ID
