Troubleshooting WisePad 3

  • Ensure your WisePad 3 card reader is charged to more than 50% battery level.
  • The POS won’t be able to discover the reader if it is too far away. Ensure that the reader is in close proximity to the POS.
  • If the reader is still connected to another POS, it won’t be discoverable on any other devices. Unpair the terminal from the original POS device by going to Settings > Terminal > Forget Terminal.
If your WisePad 3 card reader won’t pair with your POS device, follow these troubleshooting steps to resolve the issue:
  • Ensure your device has a strong and stable internet connection. HitPay POS requires either Wi-Fi or cellular data to process payments.
  • Ensure Bluetooth is enabled on your HitPay POS device.
  • Ensure Location Services is enabled in your device and is set to “Always” or ”Only when using the app”
  • Ensure the HitPay POS app has Bluetooth permissions in your device settings.
  • Ensure your WisePad 3 card reader is charged to more than 50% battery level. The device may have pairing issues when the battery is below 50%, even when plugged in.
  • Ensure the WisePad 3 card reader is connected to another device. If so, unpair it before attempting to pair with your device.

  • Power off the WisePad 3 terminal and turn it back on before restarting the pairing process.
  • Quit the HitPay app and reopen it.
  • Log out of the HitPay app then quit the app and re-login.
