4. EDIT PRODUCTS To edit products that you already created, go to My Products > Products > Fast Edit.

ORGANIZE YOUR PRODUCTS You can decide how you want your products to be displayed in the POS app. To organize your product display go to your online CashOrCard dashboard and follow these steps: Go to Menu > My Products > Product Reorder. The list on the left-hand side represents all products that aren t visible in the POS. The mock-up tablet on the right-hand side represents the product order you see in your POS. Please consider that the exact amount of products visible per page depends on the type and size of tablet you use. The first 6 pages are visible. Products beyond these pages can be accessed through search or by the use of a bar-code scanner. You can drag and drop products from the list into the POS to make them visible or from the POS into the list to hide them. Within the POS you can move the products around to display them according to your need. Once you are ready select Save and sign in to the POS to see the new order. www.cashorcardpos.com July 2015 Page 3

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS & RESOURCES
1. Will the app still work if I don t have a stable Internet connection? Yes. Though we'd recommend a stable connection, the app will still work if the internet goes down. When you lose your connection, you will still be able to make transactions with the app. Once your connection is back up, these transactions will be updated to the online dashboard. 2. What hardware do I need to get started? That really depends on the type of store you run. We offer multiple hardware kits, ranging from a full solution including a printer, cash drawer, tablet stand and bar-code scanner to a small kit with the basics. If you aren't looking for a kit, you can also buy separate hardware items. www.cashorcardpos.com July 2015 Page 7
