Let the customer pay by QR code in Jovvie Point of Sale
This page shows you how to let a customer pay with their own phone. The register shows a QR code for the order. The customer scans it with their phone and pays on your online store’s payment page, using one of the payment methods your store offers online. When they finish, Accept Payment confirms that they completed the order payment page. It does not confirm that you received the money.
QR code payments do not use your card reader or terminal. They work the same whether your store uses Stripe or NMI for in-person cards.
