When you’re operating with intermittent, limited, or no network connectivity, Stripe Terminal allows you to store payments locally on your POS device. When a network connection is restored, the SDK automatically forwards any stored payments to Stripe.

You can configure offline mode in the Dashboard or in the Configuration API.

To enable (or disable) offline mode, navigate to the relevant configuration you want to change and edit it. If adding a new configuration, create a new one first.

  1. Navigate to the Manage locations page.
  2. Find the specific location you want to change.
  3. Click the overflow menu () > Edit configuration.
  4. Click Edit or Override next to the Offline mode icon.
  5. Enable (or disable) the toggle depending on your preference.
  6. Click Update.
  7. Apply the configuration changes by clicking Apply changes on the configuration drawer.

The offline mode setting updates on the reader within 10 minutes.
