To connect a Stripe card reader to Rundoo: unbox the reader, boot it, get it on Wi-Fi (or Ethernet), let it update its software, then send Rundoo Support the three-word pairing code that appears on screen. Rundoo wires it to your Stripe account and you can start taking card payments. The full walkthrough is below.

Setting up a Stripe card reader is a hardware bring-up the customer does on-site after the reader arrives. Rundoo orders and ships the reader as part of your standard terminal package.

This page walks the Stripe Reader S710 — the current model — plus the older BBPOS WisePOS (the prior generation) for stores running existing hardware.

For card-reader issues after pairing (reader offline, charge stuck, declined transactions), see Card reader troubleshooting.
