      Why Is It Needed?      ▲ ▼

      Windcave allows a patrons to pay via a range of options, including Mastercard, Visa, American Express, UnionPay, Diners Club, Apple Pay or Google Pay wallets. Some payment cards will require additional information to be supplied by the Venue during the onboarding process. For example, an AMEX Venue ID is required if a Venue is going to offer American Express as a payment option. For Windcave’s merchant fee break down, refer to the swiftpos OrderAway Reseller Pricing Explained document and the associated sales collateral from Windcave.

      • Venues will be required to contact Windcave and create a merchant account to receive their own unique Windcave User ID and Windcave Key (password).

      How To Configure Currency?      ▲ ▼

      The currency for a Venue only needs to be configured for Venues that are located in a country outside of Australia. Please ignore this setup if the Venue is in Australia as Windcave’s default currency is Australian Dollars.

      For all approved currencies supported by Windcave and SwiftPOS, refer to To Be Considered for more information. If still unsure, please contact your authorised swiftpos Reseller.

      To configure an approved currency for OrderAway, do as follows:

      1. Instead of selecting Windcave in step 4 of the Setup above, select Secure Pay.
      2. Select the General Tab.
      3. Select the appropriately approved Currency from the Currency drop down list.
      4. Select the Save button to ensure all changes are saved.


      Notes...



      Setting the currency in the Secure Pay's General Tab will also set it for Windcave as well.
