This article explains how to connect the myPOS Mini or Combo to an Android tablet or smartphone.

Required: Open your myPOS merchant account now and start using one of our myPOS terminals.

The card terminal must be converted to cash register-integrated for this purpose:

  1. Switch on your Mini or Combo. Go to the settings of the Mini (F2 key) or Combo (Func key).

  2. Search for the option "Change Profile" and open the profile menu with the corresponding number key (usually "6").

    If the menu item "Change profile" is not visible, please contact Paymash Support (support@paymash.com).

    Provide either the serial number of the device or a box barcode. We will then request myPOS to unlock this menu item for you.


  3. Select the "Cash Register" option. ATTENTION: The unit will restart itself

  4. Select "Bluetooth" as the connection type

  5. When selecting the host connection, we recommend the myPOS Data SIM. If no mobile phone connection is possible, the Wifi option can be used.

The unit should now display the 'Waiting for connection' screen.

Grant app authorisation

In order to use Paymash with your card terminal, it is essential that all permissions for the location are granted. To do this, go to the settings of your device and find the Paymash app. Then go to Location and set the permission to 'Always allow'.
