Do i need to be present for sales with the reader for contactless and chip?

Can I just leave the device on the table by itself and people pay as they leave. Everything is $2. Can I also set it to auto charge $2 if my previous question is true?

@Curley_Drinks There is something in the card holder agreements/merchant agreement that you cannot just leave the point of sale and it be a self serve like this.  You can set up a self checkout kiosk using one of the third party marketplace vendors so a customer could select the item and pay like a self checkout.  But that functionality is not inherently built into the system.

 

You could get a square terminal and use that to take payment table side with the customer and they can leave a tip, but you send the charge to the terminal and then they can pay.  You could also look at self serve ordering where the customer scans a QR code, orders, and pays themselves.
