Quick card reader setup

Your Plus card reader will be automatically detected if you select "Card reader" as the payment method when making a sale. However, you can also manually connect.

  1. Turn your Plus card reader on with the button on the right hand side.

  2. On the SumUp app, tap on the profile icon in the top corner of the screen.

  3. Select "Card reader" and ensure the "Accept payments with card reader" toggle is enabled.

  4. Tap "Connect card reader".

  5. Check the 3 digit number on the app matches the serial number on the back of your reader. Confirm by tapping "Connect".

  6. The Plus's LEDs will flash to confirm connection and sync with your mobile device. The Plus will go into standby when inactive but will remain connected.
