The MemberHub Pay app linked to our credit card reader is great for accepting payments at in-person events. The MemberHub Pay app allows you to either shop directly from items in your MemberHub store or process quick payments by entering a payment amount.
Download the latest version of the MemberHub Pay app from the apple store and order your credit card reader via your MemberHub store admin to get started. How to order a Credit Card reader
The reader can only pair with one device at a time. So for example, if you want 4 credit card readers available for use, you will also need 4 iOS devices with MH Pay installed. Each reader can then be paired with its respective device.
