  • The Additional Information (2) section is dedicated to customer information. For example, you can add a Comment about why they applied a discount or add a new Customer to the database to leverage Fortis app customer management, loyalty, and upselling capabilities. Once the Customer is added, if you’ve set up a Loyalty Program in your Fortis POS Platform and the Customer is eligible for a personal discount due to its conditions, the app will notify you.

  1. Once you're done with the selection, hit the Pay button at the lower left corner to proceed with the purchase.
  2. Select a payment method: Card, Cash, or Split payment.
  3. After the payment is accepted, the POS device will print a receipt. Tap Finish.
  4. You will be returned to the Sales list. The status of the Sale will change to Closed, and the status of the payment will change to Paid.

Done! You have successfully sold your item and received the payment.
