WisePOS E Overview
With the WisePOS E, you can initiate a charge from within your Starboard Control Panel and let customers process their own payment via swipe, dip or tap (including ApplePay and AndroidPay).
Starboard will send all of the necessary info to the WisePOS E so there's no need for your staff to key anything in.
Processing and Storage
After the customer swipes, dips or taps their payment, we'll process it through your existing Stripe account and log it directly into the reservation for you.
When payments are processed in the WisePOS E, we'll store them just like any other Stripe payment, so you can refund or charge those cards again directly in Starboard.
We even support $0 payments in the WisePOS E (only available in the U.S.), so you can store a swiped or dipped card now, and then charge it later.
(By regulation, tapped payment methods like ApplePay can't be charged again.)
Compatibility
The WisePOS E is a network-based reader, so it's compatible with any device where you use your Control Panel: Windows, Mac, iOS and Android.
You can use it directly through a web browser or with our iOS app.
The WisePOS E connects to your network via WiFi (an optional Ethernet dock is available).
One of the coolest things about the WisePOS E is that it can be shared among multiple devices just like a shared printer.
The WisePOS E is a hybrid desktop/mobile reader. You can use it while plugged in, or unplug it and use it with its built-in rechargeable battery.
Security
One of the things we love about Stripe is their great security.
WisePOS E readers support the latest encryption technologies and are fully PCI-compliant.
Pricing and How to Buy
Readers can be purchased directly through your Stripe account here.
Stripe's processing fees for card-present payments are 2.7% + 5-cents per transaction.
There are no additional Starboard Suite service fees for using a reader.
In Canada
In addition to credit cards, the WisePOS E supports Interac Debit.
Stripe's Interac fees are 15-cents CAD per transaction.
