Getting started with the Zettle Terminal

The Zettle Terminal is a device that runs the Zettle POS app and takes card payments.

With this all-in-one device there’s no need to use both a phone/tablet and a separate card reader.

If you want to manage your products (upload pictures, add barcodes, etc.), log into your Zettle POS on a laptop or tablet, and your changes will sync with the Terminal automatically.

How do I turn on the Terminal?

Press the power button on the top of your Terminal. Follow the on-screen instructions if you’re using it for the first time.

During the initial setup of your Terminal, you need to be connected to a WiFi network. After the initial setup, you can use the SIM card alone (subject to network availability and connectivity).

If your Terminal isn’t turning on:

• Make sure it's charged. Plug in the charging cable and power adapter provided. When the Terminal is properly connected, you’ll hear a sound.
• Try long pressing on the power button.

How do I turn off the Terminal?

Press the power button on the top of your Terminal. You’ll see two options: Power off or Restart.

How do I force restart my Terminal:

• Long press the power button for about 10 seconds and the Terminal will restart.
• If step one didn’t work, insert a pin into the little hole located on the right-hand side of your Terminal to cut the power. You can then press the power button again to turn it on.

Why am I seeing a message about restarting my Terminal?

Your Terminal needs to restart every 24 hours and perform a self-test to ensure that it’s running as it should.

You can change the time of the daily restart:

3. Set the new time.

How do I charge the Terminal?
