Groupon Payments can work with a variety of existing devices or equipment through Groupon Payments. An optional card reader is available for purchase. You can calculate tax and tips directly in the app. The app lets you accept payments or even process Groupon offers with ease. If you need to accept payments using a mobile device (such as a smartphone or tablet) Groupon Payments offers a mobile app, Groupon Merchant. Since the sale of the Breadcrumb POS system, mobile processing is the primary way to accept cards with Groupon Payments.

Groupon Payments’ card processing services are currently limited to mobile processing and key-entering transactions. Credit and debit cards can be swiped using terminals and card readers, or keyed in for card-not-present transactions online or using mobile devices like tablets and smartphones. We’ll focus primarily on that in this Groupon Payments review and profile. For the time being, Groupon Payments still has information about accepting mobile payments on its website. Having sold Breadcrumb to a startup called Upserve, it’s unclear what services Groupon Payments will continue to offer, if any. Until May of 2016, Groupon owned Breadcrumb, the point of sale system designed for bars and restaurants.
