Taking Cash Payments with POSable POS

Cash payments can be processed seamlessly using the POSable POS system. The system distinguishes between sales paid by cash and those paid by card, ensuring accurate record-keeping.

Recording Cash Payments

When accepting cash, it is recommended to:

• Use the quick buttons for rapid entry, or
• Manually input the amount under the TOTAL DUE section.

This approach records the amount of cash received and helps track change given. The change amount will also be displayed on the customer receipt.

Payment Options in POSable POS

Within the POS app, three payment options are available:

• CASH
• CARD
• SPLIT PAYMENT

Selecting CASH will trigger the cash drawer to open automatically if it is connected.

Connecting and Using a Cash Drawer

To enable automatic opening:

• Connect a cash drawer via an RJ11 cable to your receipt printer.
• When the CASH button is pressed, an electronic impulse is sent from the system to open the drawer.

Note: Receipt printing remains optional and is not necessary for processing cash payments.

Split Payments Between Cash and Card

The POSable POS system allows for the efficient handling of split payments between cash and card. To facilitate this process, follow these steps:

1. Select the SPLIT PAYMENT option within the payment menu.
2. Enter the amount to be paid by cash first.
3. The remaining balance will automatically be requested on your card terminal, whether you are using myPOS or Stripe as your provider.

This method ensures a seamless transaction experience, accurately recording both payment types and maintaining clear records for your sales.
