  2. Plug the USB-A cable from the scanner into a USB-A port on the register.

  3. Route the cable neatly through the register's cable management system

Step 3 - Power On the Gift Card Scanner

  • Make sure your Snackpass register is powered on.

  • Once connected, the gift card scanner will automatically activate and be ready to use.

Note: No software installation is required—the device will sync with the register automatically.
