Introducing the TreezPay Virtual Terminal: Take Payments Anytime, Anywhere.

In cannabis retail, checkout has always been tied to the counter. Budtenders log in, customers wait, and sales happen where the terminal sits. But as the industry evolves, retail isn’t confined to that setup anymore. Customers expect to pay curbside, on delivery, and at events, and these expectations require operators to keep payments moving without being tied down to clunky hardware. The Treezpay Virtual Terminal delivers exactly that. Dispensaries using the Virtual Terminal can now accept payments anywhere business happens, without relying on a fixed register or traditional POS station.

How Virtual Terminal Works

Virtual Terminal runs securely in your browser, using the same TreezPay infrastructure that powers in-store payments. Log in from any tablet, laptop, or desktop, and start processing transactions instantly—no extra hardware, cables, or complex setup.

Process Payments in 3 Simple Steps

1️⃣ Enter Payment Details

Start by entering key transaction information: amount, customer name, and contact details. Virtual Terminal can also pull in data from existing unpaid tickets within your POS, saving time and reducing manual entry.

2️⃣ Select Payment Method

Choose how your customer wants to pay: card, tap-to-pay, or ACH. You can also select your preferred payment provider directly from the TreezPay network to ensure the best processing route.

3️⃣ Complete the Transaction

Process the payment using the option that fits your checkout flow: QR code, texted payment link, or connected terminal. Once complete, both the budtender and customer receive instant confirmation, and the sale automatically syncs with your Treez master reporting dashboard.

How to Use Virtual Terminal

The strength of the TreezPay Virtual Terminal lies in its flexibility. No matter where your business happens—inside the store, at the curb, or out in the community—Virtual Terminal moves with you. Here’s how our operators are already putting it to work every day:

In-Store Overflow: When lines build up, budtenders can use Virtual Terminal on a tablet or laptop to open an additional checkout lane in seconds. If you don't have additional hardware, feel free to grab your phone in a pinch.

Curbside Pickup: Staff can meet customers outside, confirm orders, and send a secure payment link or QR code on the spot. This ensures faster handoffs and shorter wait times.

Delivery Transactions: Drivers can send payment requests directly from their browser before or upon arrival, letting customers pay seamlessly through their phones.

Events & Pop-Ups: When sponsoring consumption lounges, trade shows, or licensed pop-ups, Virtual Terminal allows instant transactions anywhere with an internet connection.

Floating Budtenders: Using a tablet, floating budtenders can guide shoppers through product selection and complete transactions themselves from anywhere on the sales floor, improving flow and reducing wait times.

Built to Fit Your Workflow: Every dispensary runs differently. Virtual Terminal is made to adapt. Use it in the way that makes the most sense for your operations, your team, and your customers.

Why Use Virtual Terminal

1. Faster Checkouts, Happier Customers
Virtual Terminal keeps the checkout experience moving. Whether it’s curbside, delivery, or in-store, budtenders can hand off payments directly to customers through QR codes or text links. This results in shorter lines, smoother handoffs, and a more polished retail experience.

2. Smarter Workflows, Fewer Errors
With a streamlined, browser-based interface, budtenders can launch and complete payments with fewer steps and fewer mistakes. Eliminating manual keying or payment-type confusion ensures clean, accurate transactions.

3. Cleaner Data, Better Insights
Each payment automatically records who processed it, the location, and the associated order. That level of attribution solves one of the biggest pain points in standalone payment systems, where transactions often appear disconnected from the staff or ticket that created them. With Virtual Terminal, every dollar is traceable — no more guesswork during reconciliation.

4. Unified Reporting Across Every Payment Type
For all integrated payment methods, activity flows into the same reporting dashboard. Operators get a single, unified view of every transaction, including detailed summaries, tip reports, reconciliation exports, and live transaction status.

5. Maximized Uptime
Since Virtual Terminal runs on TreezPay’s multi-processor network with 15+ active providers, it’s built for resilience. If one processor experiences downtime, another takes over seamlessly, ensuring your payments stay online, and your team keeps selling.
