Does terminal work *without* wifi? I am a food truck, does it have cell network connectivity?

Hey @GyrosNat

@Square Terminal does not have cellular connectivity built in, but you can connect it to a hotspot or use your phone as a hotspot

Hey @Appalachians,

As mentioned, the Square terminal will connect to a mobile hotspot or any wireless internet connection. In this case, since you are working in multiple locations, you would need to look for different internet connections.

Hope this makes sense. Let me know if you have any other questions.
