The way cash drawers work is that whenever you print something, it will open the cash drawer. This means anytime a receipt prints, it will open a cash drawer. So credit card transactions, gift card, etc. will open the cash drawer on receipt print.

We only support cash drawers that hook into the printers, not USB cash drawers with the exception of the mPOP above.

Our iOS/ iPadOS Update Policy

We do our best to make sure WineDirect runs smoothly without bugs for every iOS/iPadOS update, which usually happens once a year.

We can’t foresee all potential issues however, so it’s our policy to ask that you wait to upgrade the iOS/iPadOS on your Apple products running WineDirect until we give you the all clear. By waiting until we’ve worked out the kinks, upgrades will come without headaches, and you can simply enjoy all the cool benefits that Apple’s enhancements bring with each release.

How will you know when we have everything tested on our end?

Check out our News Release section for updates about iOS/iPadOS testing, as well as bug fixes, new features and everything in between.

iOS 16 Update Status 

We're cleared for takeoff! You can now update your devices up to iOS 16 for iPhones and iPadOS 16 for iPads. Please reference this link to confirm if your specific device is compatable with these lates Apple platform versions.
