Terminals Preferences is where you set which credit card terminals you'd like to use.

There are two types of credit card terminals:

Software: These are terminals used when manually entering credit card details when taking orders over the phone or when a customer's card is damaged and won't read.
Hardware: These are used when a customer taps, swipes, or inserts their card at a register.

Enter the proper credentials and click the Find Terminals button to show available terminals in the drop-down menus below.

Quick Tips!

When a customer pays in person, it is always better to use the physical terminal. Merchant processors charge lower fees for tapped, swiped, or inserted cards than manually entered cards.

The Shipping tab allows you to manage your connected scales, modify your default shipping units, and designate a label printer.

Quick Tips!

If you've connected a scale that doesn't appear in the drop-down menu, check the connected scale's power supply and click the Find Scales button to refresh the list.

More information on connecting scales is in the Hardware Set Up section.
