Setting up Tagrain App for iOS
Powerful and easy-to-use POS solution Tagrain’s goal is to streamline daily transactions, drive customer acquisition, increase average order size, and maximize profits of small retails.
The Tagrain Web Register App is the Tagrain App for iOS. It's been specially designed for small retailers to help them with hassle free sales, expand business and maximize profits. This guide will walk you through the process of setting up your Tagrain App for iOS on your iPad.
To learn how to use Tagrain App for iOS, please refer to this article.
Minimum System Requirements
For the best Tagrain App for iOS experience, you'll need an iPad that is at least:
• Released from 2017 onwards
• Capable of running iOS 10 or later
These minimum requirements have been laid because older iPads running an older version of iOS may be sluggish and may miss out on some of the essential features required for the Tagrain App for iOS.
Before starting
Before you begin setting up and using your Tagrain App for iOS, you will need to set up your Tagrain store. This includes your account configuration and adding your product portfolio.
However, the Tagrain team strongly recommends doing this on a Mac or PC for optimal experience. You may refer to our Tagrain Setup Checklist to complete the steps required.
Getting Started
Only administrators and managers will be able to set up and configure the Tagrain App for iOS. If you are a cashier, please get in touch with your manager or administrator.
Logging In
Tap on the Tagrain App for iOS shortcut placed on the iPad Home Screen.
Enter your Tagrain store name, username/email, password.
- Select the POS register from the register list.
- Tap on the “Open Register” button to begin selling.

Set up Barcode Scanners
You can use the iPad’s camera App for scanning a barcode.
Tap on the barcode symbol on the product search bar and then position the iPad’s camera over the barcode to scan. Tagrain will automatically add the product to the Sell Screen.
Socket Bluetooth Barcode Scanner
Set up Receipt Printing
Tagrain App for iOS allows you to set up different printers for your store. This enables you to print receipts from multiple iPads. For example, this may be useful for printing a sale receipt.
Set up your Printer Hardware
Tagrain App for iOS supports a variety of printers. Below is the list including and not limited to these printers:
TM-T90 - Epson
TM-T88IV - Epson
EY023AA - HP
SRP 350 Plus - Samsung
RP-500 - Partner Tech
TSP 700 - Star Micronics
In order to set up your receipt printer with your iPad, you'll first need to ensure that you have all the peripherals needed.
Cables:
You will need a power cable for the printer and an ethernet cable to plug the printer in to your internet router. If you don't already have an ethernet cable ask your printer supplier to include one when you buy the printer or pick one up from your local electronics store.
Receipt Rolls:
Make sure you've got some 80mm receipt rolls ready to go. To load your receipt, roll open the latch on the top right of the printer, place the roll inside and pull some of the paper through before closing the lid.
Cash Drawer (Optional):
You may also wish to set up your cash drawer at the same time, to do this you'll need a specialized cash drawer cable. This is similar looking to an ethernet cable but is smaller on one end.
Set up your Receipt preferences
Receipt Template
A receipt template is the typical end-of-sale receipt. This will be the default receipt template assigned to the register currently in use on Register.
To create and manage receipt templates, you must use the web application on Mac or PC.
Refer to our Setting up your Receipt Templates guide to learn how.
Set up a Cash Drawer
Tagrain App for iOS allows you to set up a cash drawer, if you're using the Tagrain App for iOS with a non-handheld printer. It supports any cash drawer that can connect to your receipt printer using an RJ12 cable. The cash drawer connects to your receipt printer and is triggered to open when you complete a cash sale, and the receipt is printed by the printer.
An administrator or a manager has the privileges to manually open a cash drawer.
You can configure one cash drawer per receipt printer.
- Tap the Menu button to open the sidebar menu
- Tap Settings and select Hardware
- Select the printer you want to attach the cash drawer
- Plug the RJ12 connector cable from the cash drawer into the receipt printer
- On the printer settings page, select the printer
- Toggle the Cash drawer enabled setting to On
- Repeat this for each cash drawer attached to each printer.
You must have at least ONE receipt printer with a cash drawer enabled to be able to open the cash drawer in the Tagrain App for iOS.
Set up payments
All the payment types that you may have set up in your store via the web application are available on the Tagrain App for iOS. However, only some integrated payment methods are available. These are:
Cayan Payment
Mswipe Payment
For more information about Tagrain's integrated payment types, refer to our Integrated Payments Setup guide.
