You must enable online payments, in-person payments, or both for customers to be able to place orders using Order Anywhere.

Enabling payments allows customers to pay for their Order Anywhere orders online or in-person. Online payments are processed directly from their mobile device, and in-person payments are made at the POS when they pick up their order or finish dining at your restaurant.

Enabling online payments

Online payments for Order Anywhere are made through Lightspeed Payments, allowing customers to pay with their credit, debit card, or Apple Pay. Customers in Switzerland can also pay using Twint, and customers in Belgium and the Netherlands can use Bancontact, Payconiq, or iDEAL too. For online payments using any of the methods above, no payment terminal or physical card reader is required, as orders are processed directly online.

Enabling Scan and Pay

Scan and Pay allows customers to pay for Order Anywhere orders by scanning the QR code attached to their specific table after their meal. From their mobile device, customers can pay by debit or credit card, split the bill with others, and receive an email receipt.

1. Log in to the Order Anywhere Back Office.
2. From the navigation bar, click Settings.
3. Select the Payment settings tab.
4. In the Scan and pay section, toggle on Allow customers to scan and pay.
