For our Goldie users in the UK and CA, the Goldie WisePad 3 Card Reader seamlessly integrates with the Goldie app, enabling terminal connections and payment processing.
How it works:
To use this payment method, tap the appointment, then tap "checkout." The Goldie Card Reader appears as a new payment method on the Payment screen.
If you are using the card reader for the first time, you will be guided through a setup process via an intuitive wizard. This ensures a smooth transition to using the new feature.
Once the process is complete, the payment process is user-friendly: simply hold the card or phone to initiate payment, and the app will indicate whether the transaction was successful or failed.
