How do I connect my Pata Card Reader to the internet?

The Card Reader takes payments via the internet, and so needs to connect to the Wifi. 

It does not need to be on the same network (Wifi connection) to use, it just needs internet access.


Connect to Wi-Fi or switch networks

  1. On the Card Reader, go to the reader settings. To get here:
    • Swipe right from the left edge of the reader screen to reveal a Settings button. 
    • Tap the Settings button
    • Enter the admin PIN 07139
  2. Select Wi-Fi settings to choose the network and connect by inputting the Wifi password.
    Please note: Attempting to join a new network disconnects the reader from any existing wireless connection.


Now that you've connected your Card Reader, you'll need to activate it so you can start taking payments.
