No new hardware. Use what you already have.
Jovvie runs on the computer, tablet or phone you already own. Take cards with Tap to Pay on iPhone and Android, and add a reader, printer or scanner only if you want one. Jovvie doesn’t sell hardware.
Runs on the devices you already own
Use any modern browser, or install the Jovvie app. New or used, the device you have today works.
Phone and tablet apps
Native apps for iPhone, iPad, Android and Sunmi devices. The app adds Tap to Pay and camera barcode scanning.
Desktop apps
Install Jovvie on Mac, Windows or Linux and run your POS in its own window.
Intel and Apple silicon Macs. Windows 32-bit and 64-bit. Linux x64, ARMv8 and ARMv7.
Any web browser
Nothing to install. Open Jovvie in a modern browser on Windows, Mac, Linux, a Chromebook or even a Raspberry Pi.
See all downloads →Self-checkout kiosk. Turn on kiosk mode and any tablet becomes a self-checkout. Pair it with BizPrint to print receipts automatically.
Card readers, only if you want one
Start with Tap to Pay. When you want a dedicated reader, these work with Jovvie.
Tap to Pay
An iPhone or Android phone takes contactless cards, phones and watches. Nothing to buy.
The reader is the point of sale
The Jovvie app runs on the reader itself, so there’s no separate device at the counter.
- Stripe Reader S700
- Stripe Reader S710
- Stripe Reader T600
- Verifone readers
Handheld readers
Compact readers for chip, PIN and tap, paired with the Jovvie app on a phone or tablet.
- Stripe Reader M2
- BBPOS WisePad 3
Smart terminal
A terminal for counters, tables and front desks, paired with the Jovvie app.
- BBPOS WisePOS E
Already have a Stripe smart reader? Jovvie can run on it.
The Jovvie app runs natively on the Stripe Reader S700, S710 and T600, and on Verifone readers. You ring up the sale and take the payment on one device.
- Ring up the sale on the reader’s touchscreen
- Your customer taps, inserts or swipes on the same device
- No separate tablet, phone or computer at the counter
You don’t need one. Most businesses start on the phone, tablet or computer they already have, and add a reader later only if it helps.
How Jovvie runs on Stripe readers →On NMI
Keep the terminal on your merchant account. Jovvie works with terminals supported by NMI’s Customer Present Cloud API. Talk to us about NMI to confirm your model.
Stripe readers are available in many countries, and Tap to Pay rolls out country by country. See Jovvie on Stripe and the reader setup guide.
Printers and scanners when you need them
Receipt and kitchen printers
Print receipts and kitchen tickets with BizPrint, BizSwoop’s printing service.
About BizPrint →Barcode scanners
Barcode scanning is built into Jovvie Point of Sale. Connect a scanner to your device and scan straight into the POS search.
Barcode setup guide →Built so hardware never stops you from switching
“I had a vision that business owners could free themselves from expensive hardware requirements. We build the POS software to enable you to use any platform and any device. Bring your own device to Jovvie! New or used.”
“I already had all the hardware needed to use Jovvie in my store. Using our current Windows desktop in stores with Chrome browser and my iPhone for on-the-go, we were placing orders in seconds!”
Hardware questions
Do I need to buy hardware to use Jovvie?
No. Jovvie runs on the computer, tablet or phone you already have, and Tap to Pay on iPhone and Android takes contactless cards without a reader.
Does Jovvie sell hardware?
No. If you want a card reader, printer or scanner, buy it from the provider. Stripe readers come from Stripe.
Can I use my own computer?
Yes. Jovvie runs in Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge, Opera or Brave on Windows, Mac, Linux, Chromebooks and Raspberry Pi, and there are desktop apps for macOS and Windows.
Can I use my own phone or tablet?
Yes. Download the Jovvie app for iPhone, iPad and Android from the App Store or Google Play, or for Sunmi devices from the Sunmi App Market.
Which card readers work with Jovvie?
On Stripe: Tap to Pay on iPhone and Android, Stripe Reader S700, S710, T600 and M2, BBPOS WisePad 3 and WisePOS E, and Verifone readers. On NMI: terminals supported by NMI’s Customer Present Cloud API.
Can Jovvie run on a card reader?
Yes, optionally. The Jovvie app runs on the Stripe Reader S700, S710 and T600 and on Verifone readers, so the reader can be the whole point of sale. You don’t need one: Jovvie also runs on the computer, tablet or phone you already have.
Can I print receipts and scan barcodes?
Yes. Print receipts and kitchen tickets with BizPrint, and connect a barcode scanner to scan into the POS.
