Understanding Customer Settings in Mews POS

Settings is a dedicated menu in the Mews POS back office that gives you direct control over the most important configuration options for your POS account. As an admin user, you use Settings to configure and manage business information, taxes, users, payment types, API tokens and more, all in one place. You do this whenever you need to update or maintain your POS account settings, from the back office of Mews POS, without needing to contact Mews support for most common tasks. To access Settings, open the POS back office and select Settings from the left navigation.
