Adding the NYC1 Reader to a device
Setting Up Your NYC1 Just Takes A Few Moments From Start To Finish!
Boarding the NYC1 Terminal
Important Reminders for Both IOS & Android Users:
- The mobile device can be connected to only 1 card reader at a time. But it is possible to pair several card readers to the same mobile device.
- The battery cannot be replaced.
- Paying attention to the battery life will be important while on a bluetooth connection as the reader never completely turns off because Bluetooth is on continuously.
- At a certain point, the battery level will impact the terminals ability to accept payments
- Each green LED represents 25% of the battery capacity.
- When you collect payment from your customer, the payment status will be indicated
- 4 Green Lights at time of payment indicate a successful transaction
- 4 Red Lights at time of payment will indicate a failed transaction
- If surcharging is enabled on your account and permitted by your state, please be aware:
- If the shopper card is inserted at time of payment on the NYC1, a surcharge fee is NOT applied. All other methods should be unaffected and properly adding a surcharge at time of payment if a credit card is presented.
