Creating a Push Task for Your Application

A push task is a job that PAX's terminal management system (TMS) sends to a terminal to execute. The TMS pushes the instruction directly to the device. Push tasks can:

  • Deploy a new payment application to the device.
  • Send a software or firmware update to the terminal.

To push your app, first create a dynamic group of terminals, then push the app to that group.

1. Open Group Management

Navigate to Group Management in the nav bar, under the intended reseller.
