Tablet POS

A real register on your tablet

Turn an iPad or Android tablet sideways. Your catalog sits on the left, the cart on the right, and both stay on screen through checkout.

  • Catalog beside the cart

    Tap products into the cart. Quantities, subtotal and total update as you go.

  • Keypad when you need it

    Switch to the keypad for a quick amount. The app opens to the side you use most.

  • The cart stays put

    Tap Next and payment slides in on the left. You and your customer see the total the whole time.

Everything a counter needs, on any screen

Built for selling, not for checking balances.

Product catalog

Your Stripe products sync to the app. Tap items into a cart instead of typing amounts.

Tips

Preset tip buttons at checkout, or a custom amount. Tips land on the charge in Stripe.

Taxes and discounts

Apply tax rates and discounts before the customer pays. The rate is recorded on every charge.

Receipts and refunds

Email or text a receipt after the sale. Refund from the app, on the spot.

Staff accounts

Employees take payments without your Stripe login. No access to payouts or balances. Enterprise plan.

Offline payments

Keep selling when the connection drops. Payments queue on a supported reader and sync when you reconnect.

No monthly fee. No developer.

1.2% per sale, 15¢ minimum, on top of Stripe's 2.7% + 5¢ in-person rate. Staff accounts are on the Enterprise plan: $79/month + 1% per sale.

Stripe POS questions

Is there a free POS for Stripe?
Payment for Stripe is a free download with no monthly fee. You pay 1.2% per sale (15¢ minimum) on top of Stripe's processing fees. Tap to Pay needs no hardware, so it costs nothing to start.
Do I need a developer to use Stripe as a POS?
No. Stripe's Terminal SDK is for developers who build their own checkout. Payment for Stripe is that checkout, already built. Connect your Stripe account in about 60 seconds and start selling.
Can employees take payments without my Stripe login?
Yes, on the Enterprise plan. Invite staff by email. They get charge-only access with no view of payouts, balances or transaction history. Revoke access anytime.
Which card readers work with this Stripe POS?
Stripe Reader M2, WisePad 3, WisePOS E, Stripe Reader S700 and S710, and the Verifone V660p. Buy them from your Stripe Dashboard. Or use Tap to Pay on an iPhone or Android phone.
Where does the money go?
Straight to your own Stripe account. Payouts, refunds, disputes and reporting all stay in Stripe. The app never holds your funds.
Is this POS made by Stripe?
No. Payment for Stripe is built by PocketVendor Inc, a Stripe Premier Partner, and connects to your own Stripe account. It is not owned or operated by Stripe, Inc.
Does this Stripe POS work on iPad?
Yes. On iPad your product catalog sits beside the cart, in landscape or portrait. It needs iPadOS 18 or later. Tap to Pay is iPhone only, so pair the iPad with a Stripe card reader such as the M2.
Can I use an Android tablet as a Stripe POS?
Yes. Turn an Android 10+ tablet sideways and the catalog and cart sit side by side. In portrait it uses the phone layout. It works with every Stripe Terminal reader.
