The platform is easy to use but it would be even better if they had a section for categories or products. If you had a single product that was the same price, this is for you but if you have multiple products, you would have to add everything then input it in for the charge. The customer wouldn't even know what was purchased since nothing can be itemized. They tried to make this app convenient with new technology but the extra steps on basics adds time. Missed the mark on what a POS does!

Hi Daniel, Thanks for your review. We haven't tried to make a POS system, just a simple payment processing app that allows you to process payments quickly and easily. Having said that, we are considering adding the ability to add inventory, but doing it in a way that doesn't detract from the experience of other users is tricky. I'll keep you posted

Great app for payments, could use a tweak or two. It works fine for keeping an eye on payments, as well as taking them either via full info or touch pay (NFC). My main gripe is that even though you set a language and currency, over night, if/when you get a notification, it will always be in dollars ($) no matter what you set the currency to in your preferences. fix that, I'll give it 5 stars.

Hey Karl, thanks for the review & I'm glad you find the app is great! We're certainly happy to look into the notification issue you're encountering - could you please reach out via live chat (within the 'Support' section of the app) so we can get this resolved for you and hopefully earn that 5th star?

Tried to use this since stripe is used on our e-commerce site. However ever since I started using it in a hurry at an event as I needed to take credit cards, tons and tons and tons of $10 transactions from credits cards I've never seen before are ROLLING in. I have no idea what's going on. Now they say my tax info is wrong. I think the app is a scam and by me putting my info in it's stealing from my account. I sent an email to support but I am super concerned.

Hi Donald, I have responded to your support request and can assure you our app is not a scam. You mentioned you accidentally provided incorrect information during your account setup - to resolve this you will need to contact Stripe directly and provide them with the correct information and I'm sure they'll be able to get this sorted for you.
