Step 1. Obtain the Network Details
If you have the Credit Card Terminal Model: iPP320 Terminal
a) Press the [.,#*] button
b) Click on Misc Options (9)
c) Press 1 for Semi - Integrated
d) Select Communication Type (2)

f) The Terminal Port # will be shown at the bottom of the screen, the IP address will be shown at the top of the screen above the "Enter Terminal Port" text.
g) If the port number is not shown please enter 5555.
Note: The default log in credentials are usually one of the options below:
Admin Name: 1
Admin Password:
1234567F
or
12345677F
or
123456F
If you have the Credit Card Terminal Model: Clover
Before you begin Make sure the device is configured first, and that the certificate is installed. Failure to do both of these steps will cause the terminal to not work.
- On the Clover device you will need to find the Network Pay Display app. If you are in "Transaction Mode" (the school: branding, name, or logo should be) you can see the n click on all four corners of the screen at the same time to exit it.
- Look for the "Network Pay" app, it may be located on the second page. If you do not see the Network pay app, please install it.
- Note: you MUST be logged in to the Clover with admin permissions to be able to install the app from the app market. If you don't see the “More Tools” or “App Marketplace” app, it's because you are logged in as a user without sufficient permissions.
- Download steps:
- Click on the More Tools or App Marketplace icon
- In the search bar type in “Secure Network Pay Display”
- Download the app and complete the steps above.
6. Open the Network Pay app and click on the menu button (three horizontal lines) in the top left hand corner, once the menu expands press “Settings”.
7. Make sure that the server port says “5555”, if it doesn’t say this tap on it and type in 5555.
8. Scroll to the bottom of the page, the IP address will be displayed here. Write it down.
9. Press the back button at the bottom of the page to return to the previous screen. Once on the original screen of the Network Pay app press start, the school: branding, name, or logo should appear.
Step 2. Adding the Credit Card Terminal to Nōwn
- Open the NownPOS app and go to the Setup section.
- Open Station Setup
- Tap on “+ Add Station”, or click on the pencil icon to edit an existing POS station. Scroll down to the bottom of the Add/Edit station menu and enter the information as follows:
- Card Terminal IP Address - the number you got from the previous step
- Card Terminal Port - 5555
- Card Terminal Type - First Data (if using an iPP320) or Clover (if using a Clover)
Remember to save changes at the bottom of your page!
