Eligible Android POS
Contactless collection needs an eligible device and an approved SoftPOS integration.
Connected payments
One order. Flexible ways to collect. A centrally controlled payment workflow is the next step for connected restaurant service.

Payment coordination is in development and is not deployed in the production API. Electronic collection through these routes is not yet available.
Contactless collection needs an eligible device and an approved SoftPOS integration.
Assign collection within the same restaurant and location, while POS keeps order control.
Continue an eligible hosted payment journey from a customer-scanned code. Live checkout is not enabled.
Continue through a supported, configured channel. Delivery and provider acceptance remain to be completed.
Use compatible, approved payment hardware when that integration becomes available.
Windows POS would control the order and use an eligible external collection route. It does not provide native NFC collection. Hardware, provider and regional eligibility must be verified before a route becomes available.
Development includes order-linked sessions, route eligibility, idempotency, reconciliation and uncertainty handling. The intended workflow checks an uncertain result before allowing further collection. It is not a guarantee against every duplicate charge or a promise of instant confirmation.
Provider-specific objects and collection methods may differ. No single provider payment object is promised to work across all routes.
The connected collection routes here concern diners paying a restaurant. Your restaurant’s software plan is a separate subscription and access decision.
