Setting up Standalone Kiosk

Step-by-step guide for setting up your Tippy Standalone Kiosk

Updated over a week ago

1. Unbox Your Tippy Kit
Confirm you have received all equipment:

  • iPad in a black stand

  • Adyen EMV Reader

  • Power blocks and cables

2. Power On the Kiosk
Plug the iPad (in the black stand) into a direct power source and turn it on.

3. Connect to Wi-Fi
Connect the iPad to a reliable Wi-Fi network.
Tip: We recommend using a private network with minimal traffic.

4. Open the Tippy Pro App

  • Locate the Tippy Pro App (purple “T” icon) on the home screen

  • Swipe through the introductory screens

5. Enter Your Company Code

6. Select Your Business Location
If your company has multiple locations, choose the one where this kiosk will be used.

7. Send a Security Code

  • Select an approved user to receive the login code via text or email
    Note: If only the owner is registered, they will be the only available option.

Important:
If no users appear, the owner must first log in to the Tippy Dashboard to verify their email and phone number: https://dashboard.meettippy.com

8. Enter the Security Code
Once received, enter the security code to proceed.

9. Pair the Adyen EMV Reader

  • Tap the Menu icon (three stacked lines) in the top left corner

  • Select “Manage Reader”, then choose “Manage New Reader”

  • A Black popup titled “Card Readers” will appear. Tap “Pair Reader”

  • On the Adyen Reader, press and hold the pairing button until the lights flash green

  • Place the reader near the iPad

10. Confirm Pairing

  • The reader should appear on your pairing screen with the Serial Number – you can confirm this by verifying the serial number on the back of the reader

  • Another black pop-up screen will appear with instructions to double click the button on the side of the reader to confirm pairing

  • An iOS prompt to confirm Bluetooth Pairing will appear – select “Pair” – select “Done” when all prompts are completed

  • Under “Card Readers” the new device should be listed – please tap on the device to confirm if reader requires an update – if so, select and let update complete

  • Once completed, tap on the ‘X’ button to close out of the pairing menu and select the ‘<’ arrow to return to the App home screen

  • Complete a test transaction to confirm reader set up

Note: It can take the reader up to 5 minutes to finish pairing - if you attempt a test transaction and receive an error - give the reader a few minutes to finalize the set up and attempt again
