Paying with a card terminal
Send a payment request to the card terminal at the desk and let the invoice update automatically.
Last updated on
With the Terminal payment method you send the outstanding amount of an invoice to a card terminal at the desk. The customer pays by card or phone, and Tillor records the payment as soon as the terminal completes it.
Tillor is the exclusive Mollie Tech Partner for card payments. Tillor supplies the Mollie terminals and sets up Mollie Connect, the device and the invoice link together with you. Questions about card payments at the desk therefore come to Tillor.
Mollie terminals only
Tillor does not connect Worldline, CCV or other card machines. If you already have such a terminal, we will supply you with a Mollie device. That way online payments, card payments and the payment report stay one chain.
Starting a card payment
Open the payment screen
Open a booked invoice with an outstanding balance and click Make payment.
Choose Terminal
Under Payment method, choose Terminal.
Choose the terminal
Select the terminal at your desk. Tillor only shows terminals that are available at that moment. If you only have one, it is already selected.
Enter the amount
Type an amount or use the 25%, 50%, 75% and 100% buttons. A partial amount is handy for a deposit, or when the customer pays part in cash and part by card.
Send the payment
Click Submit payment. The Processing payment screen appears while Tillor sends the request to the terminal.
What happens next?
The screen follows the payment live. The customer pays on the terminal, and the screen goes from Payment in progress to Payment successful. It closes by itself after a few seconds, and the outstanding balance of the invoice is updated.
While the terminal is waiting, you can tick two boxes:
- Print A4 when paid puts the invoice PDF in the queue of the A4 printer as soon as the payment succeeds. The option is greyed out if no connector is online.
- Mail after payment emails the invoice to the customer as soon as the payment succeeds. The option is greyed out if the customer has no email address.
If the payment fails or expires, you get the message Payment failed or Payment expired. Click Resend to terminal to try again.
Setting the default terminal
Tillor activates the card device with your Mollie account. After Mollie has been connected, Tillor picks the terminal itself if there is exactly one active terminal. To choose a different one, go to SettingsIntegrations under Mollie, in the Default terminal field (next to the Primary profile). Tillor then suggests that terminal for a card payment.
