Disable Cash payment option through ACTION_CLOVER_PAY

Hello,

We are building a order kiosk that needs to accept payment. However, since this is a self-service kiosk, I need to disable cash tender payment. I am using ACTION_CLOVER_PAY to start payment. Is there anyway to not show cash payment option?

I like all the other options available )namely split payment, custom tenders, credit cards). Just do not want to show cash payment.

The activity started by ACTION_CLOVER_PAY is intended for merchant employees and not customers. We do not have any option to remove cash as an option from that particular activity. A merchant can remove cash as an accepted tender type from the Setup app but that will remove the ability to take cash across the board for all their devices.

Instead of using ACTION_CLOVER_PAY for taking payments, use Payment Connector https://docs.clover.com/clover-platform/docs/using-payment-connector

Note that using Payment Connector would require you write the split payment code yourself.

Also note that if you are developing a kiosk you will want to take advantage of CustomerMode: https://clover.github.io/clover-android-sdk/com/clover/sdk/util/CustomerMode.html

As Jacob mentioned above, you can use Payment Connector alternatively you could investigate using ACTION_SECURE_PAY which does have some disadvantages (https://community.clover.com/questions/22152/action-clover-pay-vs-action-secure-pay.html).
