The Handpoint TMS is a web-based terminal management system for easy setup and management of your merchant's card readers.
Who is it for?
It's meant for any organization that needs to manage and onboard merchants on the Handpoint payment platform.
How is it used?
To onboard a merchant in the Handpoint TMS, you are able to create and configure merchant information, assign terminals to specific merchants, and extract the merchant key (Shared Secret Key and/or API KEY).
...
Overview of the onboarding workflow
...
The Handpoint TMS requires just a few pieces of information to set up and activate a merchant:
...
Use the VAR sheet to CREATE a merchant profile in the TMS
Next, use the TMS to ASSIGN the correct card readers to that merchant and easily EDIT special terminal features, e.g., tipping
Finally, the TMS generates a SHARED SECRET that is the “key” for merchants’ terminals. This key must be provided to an SWP (Software Partner) if they are storing the keys, or to the merchant directly if they are using the Handpoint app.

Gaining access to the TMS
Access to the Handpoint Terminal Management System is provided to selected partners and is requested through your account manager.
The following basic information is needed to create a new partner profile:
Partner name
Name of organization, company, etc
Location information
Address, City, Zip Code,
State and Country
Contact information
Phone number
Email
NOTE: You will receive login information via email after your organisation has been set up in the TMS. An organization might be provided with more than one login to the TMS. This can occur if a processor is supporting multiple SWPs or if an SWP is working with more than one processor.
