Remove any card surcharges you set up yourself, then go to Settings > Sync > Sync Payment Info. See Card surcharges from 1 October 2026.

Release the key and allow the Reboot to complete
The terminal will take around 1-2 minute(s) to complete a reboot
Unpair Tyro:

Go to 5 - Configuration
Enter in your store manager PIN
Go into Integrated EFTPOS
Go to 3 - Clear Pairings
Select YES to confirm you want to clear the pairing
Pair Tyro:

Tyro Pay@Table
Available in Nomni POS version 2.8.16 and later.
Setup
To set up Tyro Pay@Table, you will need to speak with one of our friendly support technicians. They will need to change your Master IP address to be compatible with Tyro Pay@Table, and push settings to your Pay@Table terminal.
Note: Do not attempt to change network settings by yourself, this can have adverse effects on your connection. Speak with a support technician to set up Tyro Pay@Table with Nomni POS 😃
How to use
(Reference: How does Pay@Table work?, Tyro)
On Nomni POS, print out the bill and bring it to your table
Enter your Staff PIN, this is your Operator ID on Tyro
Enter the number of the table you are serving.
The order amount will display. Select whether you want to split the bill or pay it in full. If you split a bill, you can still pay with other forms of payment at the POS, however you will only be able to split the bill by dollar amounts instead of specific items.
Enter the payment amount then press OK
Select whether or not a tip will be provided.
Enter the tip amount. Tips are recorded on Nomni POS.
Pay by card
You will be prompted to print a receipt
You can either continue to pay the order, or hold the partially paid order.
If you hold the partially paid order, you can pay the remainder of it on Nomni POS
You can further split the payment (by Portion) on the POS.
You should have a separate Tyro terminal (not Pay@Table) stationed at the POS so it can take card payments from here.
Refunds
Refunds can be made via the POS via the Order History.
In Nomni POS 2.8.100 and later, any refunds will also include tips that were placed in Tyro.
Step-by-step: pair a new or replacement Tyro terminal
On the Tyro terminal, choose Pair with POS.
On Nomni POS, open Settings > Payment.
Check Custom Payments is turned on.
Tap Tyro and select your terminal model.
Enter the Merchant ID (MID) and Terminal ID (TID) shown on the Tyro screen.
Tap Authorise, then press start on the Tyro terminal.
What you should see: a pairing success message on both devices. Take a small test payment.
If pairing fails, see Nomni POS can't connect to your EFTPOS terminal.
