To use the Zuper M2 Payment Reader, make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your mobile device and follow the pairing instructions below:

1. Turn on the payment reader: Press the power button located on the right side of the device.

2.  Enable the necessary settings on your mobile device:

  • Enable Bluetooth

Note: After enabling Bluetooth on your device, the payment reader will appear as a payment method in the app. However, additional setup is required for the first use.

  • Allow location access for the Zuper app:
    • For Apple devices, go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services, and enable location for the Zuper app.
    • For Android devices, go to Settings > Apps > Zuper, and grant permission for “Location” and “Nearby Devices.”

  • Choose Collect via Terminal as your payment method. Your device will begin searching for the payment reader automatically.
  • Select Pair to link the payment reader with your mobile device. The device will update automatically, which may take around 15 seconds.

Note: Pairing the payment reader during the initial setup is recommended to ensure the update is completed before you start collecting payments.

Collecting payments using the Payment Reader

Once your payment reader is set up, you can collect payments directly from invoices or deposits on quotes:

  1. In the Zuper app, select Collect Payment or Collect Deposit for an invoice or quote.

  2. Choose Collect via Terminal as your payment method.

  3. When prompted, turn on your payment reader.

Payment Reader updates

Zuper Payments is powered by Stripe, which manages software updates for the Zuper Pay Reader. The device will automatically receive updates from Stripe when not in use, typically around midnight in your time zone.

To ensure your payment reader stays up to date, leave it plugged in overnight. If it is unplugged, the update will occur the next time you turn the device on. You can manually check for updates by rebooting the payment reader.
