Our till.

VidiPOS needs no special hardware: the till app runs on common tablets and phones, receipts print on network receipt printers, and card payments run through SumUp or Stripe. Here is what you need. Hardware is not included in the price.

Receipt printers

Printing runs over your venue’s network, not by cable to the tablet.

  • Network receipt printer with ESC/POSVia Ethernet (LAN) or Wi-Fi on your venue’s network, port 9100 – common receipt printers with a network interface can do this. See the models in the list below.
  • Paper width 58 or 80 mmSet per printer. A test print from the app shows whether the width and special characters (€ ä ö ü ß) are right.
  • Counter and kitchenReceipt at the counter, kitchen and bar tickets per station on further printers.
  • Fixed IP addressGive the printer a fixed address in your router so the till finds it again after a restart.
  • Not supportedUSB, Bluetooth and serial-only printers; Bluetooth is coming soon. VidiPOS only prints to targets on the local network.
