Setting up your PAX A920

Get your PAX A920 smart terminal out of the box and taking payments.

1. Charge and power on

Give the A920 a full charge first using the supplied cable and plug. Press and hold the power button on the right-hand side until the screen lights up.

2. Connect to the internet

Swipe down from the top and tap the cog, then Wi-Fi. Choose your business network (not the guest one) and enter the password. If you've been supplied a 4G SIM it will connect automatically.

3. Open the payment app

Tap the Chip & Pin Direct payment app on the home screen. It will check in and download your latest settings — give it a minute the first time.

4. Take a test payment

Run a small sale and refund it to confirm everything's working. Contactless, Apple Pay and Google Pay are switched on by default.

Need a hand?

If the app won't load or the terminal won't connect, give us a ring on 0191 432 6588 and we'll get you live.

Still need a hand?

A real person in the North East answers the phone — no queues, no scripts.
