Can I use Cloud Pay Display on the customer facing part of the Duo?

Hello. Please let me know if I can use an ecommerce API / cloud / REST / my website wants to talk to a terminal... with the Station Duo Dev-Kit.


I have been able to get it to work on the merchant facing screen after sideloading the Cloud Pay Display APK on to it. If I do not have the Cloud Pay Display app installed and open, my messages time out, but if I do they work on the merchant facing screen... but I want them to work on the customer facing screen (similar to Mini 3, but attached via USB to the other screen).


I am going to continue developing on the wrong screen now, but I need to have this fixed eventually (or switch to the Solo or Mini 3 instead of the Duo... don't want to though)

I have just discovered that if I run Cloud Pay Display on the big screen, and then I do a /v1/device/read-signature, the little screen goes to a loading circle. After entering the signature on the big screen, it goes to a loading circle as well (and the little screen blinks every time you touch the screen while entering your signature).. After that /v1/device/display, welcome, and thank-you all work on BOTH screens.

However, once you exit Cloud Pay Display on the big screen, the little screen does nothing but display the clover logo until you reboot the device.

I have it working pretty reliably on both screens at the same time. If anyone knows how to make it just work on the little screen while my website remains on the big one, please let me know. I hope this is fixed in an update to Cloud Pay Display that is officially compatible with the Duo.

Yes, you can use an eCommerce API or cloud service Mapquest Directions with the Station Duo Dev-Kit. It seems like the issue may be with the Cloud Pay Display app not being active on the customer-facing screen. You might need to ensure that the app is properly configured and running on both screens or explore alternative solutions like the Solo or Mini 3 if needed.

Absolutely, you can use Cloud Pay Display on the customer-facing part of the Duo! It's a great way to streamline payment interactions. By the way, if you're also thinking about keeping your data safe, Office 365 Backup to the Cloud is a solid option. I'd recommend checking out Loopbackup for secure, automated backups – makes life a lot easier!
