In-Person Payments Overview
About this guide
This guide explains how to implement a unified payment solution that connects your online and in-store processing through Braintree and Verifone payment terminals. With this integration, you can extend an existing Braintree ecommerce setup to your physical stores, creating a single system for online and in-person transactions with consolidated reporting and simpler day-to-day operations.
If you're using the previous version of Braintree's in-person solution, you can find its documentation here.
