Our Terminal API is based on the nexo Retailer Protocol<\/a>.
See our official Terminal API<\/a> reference.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n

The Adyen Terminal API lets you make payments, issue refunds, collect shopper information, and perform other shopper-terminal interactions using a payment terminal supplied by Adyen.<\/p>\n

Before you make any point-of-sale payments, it is important to understand how Terminal API works and how requests and responses are structured.<\/p>\n

Enable Terminal API<\/h2>\n

Before you can use Terminal API in your test environment, you need to enable it:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Log in to your test Customer Area<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. Go to In-person payments<\/strong> > Terminal settings<\/strong> and select Integrations<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  3. Select the option to Enable Terminal API<\/strong>.<\/li>\n
  4. Select Save<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    When you switch to your live environment, follow the same steps in your live Customer Area<\/a>.<\/p>\n

    Use the correct endpoint<\/h2>\n

    The endpoints you need to use, and how you authenticate requests depends on how your integration connects to the Adyen payments platform:<\/p>\n
