How to accept order payments with e-Wallet

To make a prepayment or non-cash settlement without actual cards at office canteens, resorts or hotels, you can use e-Wallets

To make a prepayment or non-cash settlement without actual cards at office canteens, resorts or hotels, you can use e-Wallets. For example, there are cases when parents don’t want to give the child cash for lunch in the cafeteria. Instead, they top up the e-Wallet at Poster to use this money to pay for lunch at school.

All you need to do is to enable e-Wallet, top up the customer’s account and accept the payment with e-Wallet.

☝️ Deposit accounts are available in Business and Pro pricing plans:

  • in Ukraine, Kazakhstan, Poland and Armenia you can top up a deposit account only with cash;
  • in other countries you can top up your guest's account with cash or by a wire transfer.

e-Wallet setup

To enable e-Wallet:

  1. Open the tab Marketing → Customer groups in the management console.
  2. Add bonus or discount customer group or click Edit next to the existing one.
  3. Check Customers of this group can have e-Wallet balance.
  4. Click Save.

☝️ By default the tax is not applied for topping up a deposit account.


e-Wallet top up

  4. Click Done.

  2. Go to the Receipt tab and click Pay.

How to check when a guest topped up their deposit account
