Hello 👋
Give me a moment to catch up

Appreciate your patience
I don't think we have a listener specific for swiping. Can you expand on the usecase here so that we can figure out if there are any alternatives?

#

Yes.
I wanted any kind of signal from the terminal device to my pos system so that I change the status of payment inprogress and show that to the biller that payment is in processing state

#

Ah okay. The terminal SDK can handle that on its own

#

I wanted that so that I can tell the customer when to swipe the card and after swipping wait for payment processing

What terminal device do are you trying to integrate?

merry lake May 23, 2022, 7:44 PM

#

I am designing integration for BBPOS WisePOS E

#

Gotcha.
So when the SDK runs collectPaymentMethod function, the reader itself would prompt the customer to tap/swipe the card by showing a preview

#

https://stripe.com/docs/terminal/payments/collect-payment#collect-payment

#

And while its processing w/ processPayment, the reader would also show a loading screen

#

But when to run process payment as there is no event which tells our system to proceed with this step?

sage bolt May 23, 2022, 7:54 PM

#

I'm not sure I follow
Isn't your system itself calling the processPayment function?

#

Are you trying to implement server-driven solution?

#

Nope. Thanks for all the answers.
