Process a Payment on mPOS
Oolio mPOS provides a compact version of Oolio POS for staff working around the venue. From mPOS, staff can access tables and open orders, take payments, review paid orders, and manage customer receipts without returning to the main POS.
The screens available in mPOS depend on the Device Profile configured in Oolio One Back Office.
Understand the mPOS navigation
Depending on the configured workflow, mPOS provides access to areas including:
-
Floor Plan: View Sections and Tables and open table orders.
-
Open Orders: View orders that have been sent but have not yet been fully paid.
-
Order History: View completed and paid orders.
See 🔗 Set up Device Profiles for information about configuring the workflow available on an mPOS device.
