Quickstart

Sign up, connect Stripe, and process your first payment in minutes.

This guide walks you through everything you need to start accepting payments with NectarPay.

Prerequisites

  • A business email address.
  • A Stripe account (or willingness to create one during onboarding).
  • At least one supported card reader, such as the BBPOS WisePOS E. See Order a terminal.

1. Create your account

  1. Go to the NectarPay sign-up page and select Create Account.
  2. Enter your full name, business email, password, company name, and country.
  3. Agree to the Terms of Use and choose Get Started.
  4. Open the verification email NectarPay sends you and follow the link to confirm your address.

Tip: The verification link expires after 24 hours. If it expires, sign in and choose Resend to get a new email.

2. Complete account setup

After you sign in for the first time, NectarPay walks you through Stripe onboarding so you can accept payments.

  1. From Account Setup, choose Stripe Onboarding and complete the steps Stripe requires.
  2. Return to NectarPay. Your account status updates to Active as soon as Stripe enables charges and payouts.

You can revisit Stripe onboarding any time from Account → Stripe Account.

3. Add a location

Locations represent the physical places where you operate. Every reader is linked to one.

  1. In the side navigation, open Locations.
  2. Choose Add Location, enter a name and address, and save.
  3. Optionally configure tipping and a custom splash screen for the location's readers. See Locations.

4. Add a terminal

  1. From your new location, choose Add Terminal.
  2. On the WisePOS E reader, swipe right from the left edge of the screen, tap Settings, enter the admin PIN, and generate a registration code.
  3. In NectarPay, enter the Registration Code and a Terminal Name, then save.

The reader pairs with your account and appears under the location.

5. Send your first payment

  1. Open Payments and choose Create Payment.
  2. Select a location and terminal (or pick a favorite), and enter the amount.
  3. Optionally attach a customer, receipt email, and printer.
  4. Choose Send Payment to Terminal. The customer taps, inserts, or swipes their card on the reader.
  5. Watch the timeline update as the payment succeeds, and email or print the receipt.

Success: You're live. Process more payments, share a payment link, or set up a kiosk.
