https://stripe.com/docs/terminal/payments/setup-reader/bbpos-wisepos-e#default-reader-language this is not supported to change it dynamically

#

this is the default lang of the reader

#

my question is about localization

#

is there any plan to have that feature soon?

When you say localization, what exactly are you referring to?

Can you share an example of what the ideal flow looks like?

So I have a POS in English and French and the default language of POS is English and Card Reader default lang is also English

#

now user chooses French and all the messages on the POS is in french, but the card reader still showing messages in English like Tap or Insert your card, or any other error messages or card related message are in english

Gotcha, so the only way to change the locale/language for those prompts is to change the reader default language.
There's no way to specify it dynamically using the terminal SDK. Not sure if there's any plans for this in near future.

You can file in a feature request via our support form

#

I'll make sure to flag it internally too
