Verifone – Setting Up Static IP Address Assignment

Sometimes it is necessary to assign a static IP address on your card reader. Generally, this should be set as an IP reservation on your internet router. However, that is not always possible. Here we show you how to configure a static IP address directly on your Verifone card reader.

You usually receive the IP address information from your IT service provider, IT technician, or POS integrator.
