Due to the restrictions from the Payment Card Industry (PCI) it is not longer possible to use credit card data without a certified payment provider.
Therefor you need to connect / setup an account with a supported payment provider. The payment provider will allow you to process the payment from within the PMS, so you no longer need a device.
Currently we support Stripe and SysPay. Have a look at their websites to see which provider suits you best.
All supported payment providers offer functionalities to save credit card data, charge the card, make an authorization (or reserve an amount) and refund payments if needed.
