Multiple readers with one phone

It is possible to pair more than one contactless reader to the same phone if we have a number of people making sales in the same area? Or do we need a separate phone for each reader?

you can pair one reader to one device, having more than one reader to one device wouldn't gain anything as only one transaction can be processed at a time.

In our setting that would be fine as our two concessions are side by side. Are you saying it is possible to pair two devices then, and we would just have to wait if one is being used?

Hey @aplusvending - While you can use your reader with multiple devices, Bluetooth functionality limits devices to only pair with one other device at a time. In other words, if you connect the Contactless reader with one phone, you wouldn't be able to connect it with another phone at the same time. Hope that helps clarify things for you!
