How do I update the Terminal software and app?

For the best performance, make sure you’re using the latest version of our software.

To update your Terminal software and the Point of Sale App:

  1. Open the Point of Sale App from the home screen.
  2. Tap Updates, then tap Update.

After tapping Update, the Terminal will restart itself during the updating process.

Currently, you can only install the Point of Sale App on your Terminal. It can’t be used like a smartphone.

To uninstall the Point of Sale App, long press on the app icon and then select Uninstall. You can reinstall it from Updates.
