## 💳 Take Card, PayNow and Alipay/WeChat Payments on the Terminal

Tap a payment method linked to your terminal and follow the on-screen prompts for card, PayNow or Alipay/WeChat payments.

### 📝 Steps
1. On the **Pay** screen, tap the card, PayNow or Alipay/WeChat method that is set up for your payment terminal.
2. For a card terminal payment, the **Card Payment** dialog opens and shows "Please follow the instructions on the pinpad display to complete payment." Wait for the terminal to finish.
3. For PayNow, the **Payment Processor** dialog shows "Contacting Payment Gateway...", then a QR code with "Awaiting Payment Confirmation...". If it shows "Paynow Server is busy, Waiting...", POS retries on its own.
4. For Alipay/WeChat on the terminal, the **Card Payment** dialog opens and shows "Please ask customer to open Alipay / WeChat and scan the QR code on the terminal."
5. When payment succeeds, the dialog shows "PAYMENT SUCCESSFUL" and closes itself after a short countdown, or tap **Confirm**.
6. If payment fails, the dialog shows "PAYMENT FAILED" and "Please Check and Try Again"; tap **Retry** to try again.

> **💡 Tip:** The **Card Payment** dialog is shared by the pinpad flow and the Alipay/WeChat scan flow — check the on-screen message to see which one is running. Only PayNow and Alipay/WeChat show a **Cancel** button while waiting. The success countdown length is set in **Settings → Pos → General Settings → Payment → Payment Popup Countdown**.
