Mercury Configurations define what Mercury account will be used when processing credit card transactions in the Point Of Sale. Setting up a Mercury configuration will enable you to allow payments with various credit cards (eg. Visa, MasterCard, Discovery, American Express, ...). After setting up this configuration you should associate it with a Point Of Sale payment method.

We currently support the MagTek Dynamag card reader device. It can be connected directly to the Point Of Sale device or it can be connected to the IoTBox.

Using the Mercury integration in the Point Of Sale is easy: just press the associated payment method. After that the amount can be adjusted (eg. for cashback) just like on any other payment line. Whenever the payment line is set up, a card can be swiped through the card reader device.

For quickly handling orders: just swiping a credit card when on the payment screen (without having pressed anything else) will charge the full amount of the order to the card.

If you don't already have a Mercury account, contact Mercury at +1 (800) 846-4472 to create one.
