Pay-per-use
With pay-per-use active, a payment screen appears before the session starts. It is meant for public installations — trade fairs, funfairs, bars — where the guest pays rather than the host.
The payment provider's credentials belong to the device and live under Access and accounts. Here you set whether and how much is charged.
Basic settings#
| Setting | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Enable pay-per-use | The master switch |
| Payment provider | Stripe or Adyen |
| Amount in cents | 500 means 5.00 EUR. On Stripe the minimum for euro is 50 cents |
| Currency | As an ISO code, for example EUR |
| Info text | Optional notice on the payment screen |
When payment is due#
| Trigger | Flow |
|---|---|
| Session start | Once before the capture begins |
| Every print | Before each print job. Total = base amount + (surcharge per copy × number) |
How guests pay#
- Directly — the payment page opens on the booth.
- QR — the guest scans with their own phone and pays there.
For QR payment a return URL is recommended so that the guest does not end up on the booth's local address, which their phone cannot reach.
You can also set a timeout in seconds and whether a new attempt is allowed after a failure.
Test mode#
In test mode no real charge is made. That allows the whole flow to be rehearsed before the booth goes public.
