If your Spire Bluetooth POS terminal displays the message "Terminal needs to be initialized," follow these steps to resolve the issue:

  1. Turn off and restart: First, completely turn off the Spire Bluetooth POS terminal by pressing the power button, then turn it back on.

  2. Check the connection: Ensure the terminal is properly connected. Check if the Wi-Fi logo appears on the terminal's screen. If the Wi-Fi logo is not visible, make sure the terminal is connected to a functional Wi-Fi network.

  3. Test transaction on the ordering terminal: To confirm the POS terminal is working correctly, perform a test transaction on the associated ordering terminal. Make sure the transaction is processed correctly and the payment is accepted.

  4. Contact support: If the issue persists after following the steps above, please contact our support team directly by phone.
