Step 2. Create a login from your approval email

After you're approved, you will receive an email from BusinessServices@intuit.com.

Once you've completed the setup instructions, you're ready to swipe or manually enter a credit card for a sale. You may plug in the card reader and swipe. If you do not have a card reader, just tap Key Card to manually enter the card information.

Set up or configure a mobile device to use with QuickBooks Mobile Payments

The following applies to all mobile devices that are to be used with the GoPayment application and associated hardware:

  • Internet and Instant Message access is a required feature for the mobile device.
  • Confirm your device is compatible with the GoPayment application and associated hardware. See: Devices compatible with the Intuit card reader
  • Make sure that you do not have any type of cover or protective skin on the mobile device.
  • For the Audio Jack card reader, make sure all volume settings are turned all the way up with the card reader connected.
  • The mobile device must be at the latest operating system release version.
  • Must have a strong connection that is not interrupted (i.e. not on a call, no Call Waiting or other interference during the connection).
  • The speaker-phone must be disabled.
  • No other applications are running on the device when using GoPayment.

Important: Our product development team tests GoPayment on the compatible devices listed above, as they are configured from the factory. In some cases it may be necessary to return the mobile device back to its original, "like new" configuration to ensure that it will work with GoPayment and the associated hardware. For more information on returning your device to this original state, contact your mobile device provider.

Perform the appropriate steps for your device's specific parameters to ensure it is optimally configured to work with GoPayment.
