Integrate Terminal in Poland
Stripe supports Visa, Mastercard, American Express, and Discover payments in Poland. All transactions must be made in Polish złoty (PLN). To accept Terminal charges in Poland, either your platform account or connected account must be in Poland.
Use locations
Create Locations for your business with addresses in Poland and associate your readers to them. This will ensure that they automatically download the configuration needed to properly process charges in Poland. A valid address for a Location in Poland must contain the line1, city, postal_, and country properties.
Translation
Default reader language
The BBPOS WisePOS E and Stripe Reader S700 support changing reader language in the Settings panel. Swipe right across the screen to access the Settings panel, and select your language.
The BBPOS WisePad 3 supports changing reader language directly in the reader interface. After you have registered your reader to a Location with an address in Poland, the reader installs a language pack relevant for your region if one isn’t already in place. To view available language options and to select a language, click the Power / Settings button and scroll down using the arrow keys until you reach the language selection menu. Highlight your desired language and press the green Enter key.
Other translations
If you would like to translate text into Polish in addition to English, ensure that your custom reader screens and receipts display the appropriate translations.
