QashierXS Setup: Unbox, Power On, Load Receipt Paper and Charge

Say HI to your new QashierXS

Unbox your QashierXS, turn it on, load the receipt paper, charge it, connect it to the internet and log in. The QashierXS is a compact all-in-one terminal with a single screen and a built-in receipt printer that runs the full Qashier POS.

Applies to: All markets · White QashierXS · Qashier POS · No PIN needed for the hardware steps; logging in needs your QashierHQ email address and password.

You will need an internet connection to use the QashierXS. If you ordered online through QashierHQ, the terminal arrives pre-configured: turn it on, connect it and log in.

What you need

  • The QashierXS and its charger (in the box).

  • Receipt paper: 57mm x 35mm thermal receipt paper.

  • Your Wi-Fi name and password, or a SIM card with an active mobile-data plan.

  • Your QashierHQ login email address and password.
