Supported payment methods
Wemu POS accepts all of the below from a single checkout screen. Availability depends on what you've connected in Settings → Integrations on the web.
- Cash — always available, no setup needed
- Card (chip, swipe, manual entry) — requires Stripe Connect
- Tap to Pay on iPhone — iPhone XS or later, requires Stripe Connect + the Tap to Pay entitlement (we request it for you)
- Tap to Pay on Android — most NFC-capable phones, requires Stripe Connect
- QR code — customer scans a QR with their phone to pay via Stripe Checkout (card, Alipay, GCash if Airwallex connected)
- Split tender — any combination of the above in one order
The checkout flow
- Add items to the cart, tap Charge
- Pick a payment method from the row of large buttons
- Method-specific step:
- Cash — tap a quick-cash button ($20, $50) or type the tendered amount; the app shows change due
- Card — insert customer's card into the Stripe reader OR type the card number manually; app polls for authorisation
- Tap to Pay — hold the phone against the customer's contactless card/phone; approval in ~2 seconds
- QR — the app shows a QR code on screen; customer scans, pays, screen advances automatically
- Tap Complete payment
- Choose how the customer gets their receipt — Print / Email / SMS / Skip
Tips
- Add an optional tip before you tap Charge. Three preset percentages (10/15/20%) plus custom amount.
- Tip goes to the staff who rang the sale; see reports under Reports → Team performance.
Discounts
- Order-level discount — from the cart's Discount button; % or flat amount
- Item-level discount — long-press a cart item → Discount this item
Split payments
Customer wants to pay half cash, half card?
- Tap Charge → Split
- Enter the first tender's amount and method → Complete
- Remaining balance shows → enter the next tender → repeat until paid in full
Each tender is recorded separately on the order so reports still break down cash vs card revenue cleanly.
