App update guide

This document applies to both Global Payments Terminal Plus and Global Payments Register. Please follow the instructions to update your device's POS app.

Terminal Plus
If you're using the Global Payments Terminal Plus, there is no action required to initiate the update of the POS app. The Global Payments Support team will remotely roll out updates, when available. Rest assured there will be no interruption when you're actively using the terminal. Our app is designed to only perform the automatic remote update until the app is not active. If you close out of the app then reopen it or turn on a terminal that has been turned off, an auto-update will be triggered. Once the update is completed, you will be prompted to reboot the app. NOTE: The rest of the guide only applies to Global Payments Register.

Register
If you're using the Global Payments Register, when an app update is available, a pop-up message will show up on your login screen, letting you know that the app needs to be updated.  If the update is optional, you
may select "skip for now" if you wish to perform the update at another time.  If the update is mandatory, the "skip for now" button will be disabled and you must complete the app update before proceeding. Follow the steps below to complete the app update.
