Mobile payments and scanning

What Hubumo can do

Three dedicated Android apps — payments, NFC unlock, and scanning.

Tap to Pay — ready for a payment request and online when paired.
Hold Here to Pay — review the order items and total, then take payment on the device.
NFC authentication — tap an authorised card to unlock Manager or another permitted app; access is approved or denied.
Scanner — scan barcodes and QR codes for POS, Waiter inventory, or Door check-in.
Device pairing — pair payment, NFC, and Scanner devices from Manager → Settings → Staff devices.
Terminal compatibility — Confirm card still works with an external terminal alongside Tap to Pay.

How mobile payments and scanning work

Tap to Pay

Pair the Tap to Pay device, leave it on Waiting for order, and select Tap to Pay when a payment request arrives. The device displays the order details and synchronises successful payments with POS, Waiter, and Door.

NFC authentication and access

Install the NFC Android app and pair it once using the Staff Devices QR code. When idle, the device displays Hold card beneath the Manager badge. An authorised manager or owner NFC credential shows Approved and unlocks Manager and other protected operational apps. After a break or clock-out at the station, protected apps remain locked until the next successful NFC authentication.

Scanner

Pair the Scanner in Settings, then scan barcodes or QR codes for POS, Stock, or Door check-in. Each device is paired with one club or venue.
