How to Begin Setting up the Your Stripe S700

Effortlessly streamline your payment process by setting up and pairing a card reader with your Dripos Point of Sale device, enabling secure and efficient transactions for your business and customers. Follow the steps below to get started setting up your card reader.

Setting up the S700

  1. Once you have unboxed your new reader, Connect the reader to power by plugging the provided USB-C cable into the port on the left side of your reader. Connect the opposite end of the USB-C cable to the provided power adapter and plug it into a power outlet.
  1. After the reader is fully charged, hold down the power button on the right side until the screen turns on. After the device powers on, press the power button to sleep or wake the device. To fully power off the device, hold down the power button until the power off option appears on the screen, then select it.

    In a counter-top deployment, leaving the device on for extended periods is expected. With a full charge, you can expect the battery to last about 15 hours.

    Even when not in use, leave Stripe Reader S700 plugged in and powered on to receive automatic software updates.

  2. On it’s first boot up, the Reader will automatically go through the Settings menu to configure and connect the reader to a network. To directly open the settings menu, swipe right from the left edge of the reader screen to reveal a Settings button. Tap the Settings button and enter the admin PIN 07139.

    From here, you can update your Wi-Fi settings or choose to Generate Pairing Code for device setup. Battery status is displayed at the top right of this screen. To close the settings menu, click the back arrow in the top left corner.

  1. To connect to Wi-Fi or switch networks, go to settings, then select Network. Attempting to join a new network disconnects the reader from any existing wireless connection.

    Your Wi-Fi network must use WPA-Personal or WPA2-Personal encryption and be password protected. The Stripe Reader S700 does not support non-password-protected networks, enterprise networks, or IPV6 networks. Follow the troubleshooting steps to diagnose issues with IPV6 networks. If needed, you can set a static IP on the device from the Wireless settings screen.

  2. Once a network connection is established, the reader will generate a three word pairing code formatted as “one-two-three” which can be input into the POS.
