Loyverse POS Hardware for iPad, iPhone & Android
Find receipt printers, cash drawers, barcode scanners and checkout accessories for Loyverse POS, including guidance for choosing the correct Epson or Star receipt printer interface for Apple iPad and iPhone systems.
Quick Answer: What receipt printer works with Loyverse on an Apple iPad?
For Loyverse POS on an Apple iPad, choose both a receipt printer model and a connection method that Loyverse supports for iOS.
Loyverse currently identifies the Star Micronics mC-Print3 for iOS using USB, Bluetooth or Ethernet. Loyverse also identifies specific Epson models including the Epson TM-m30 and Epson TM-m30II-SL using Ethernet or Bluetooth.
Important: Printer compatibility depends on both the
printer model and interface. A printer family may be compatible
through Ethernet but not necessarily through every USB, Bluetooth or Wi-Fi version.
If you also need a cash drawer, the most common configuration is a printer-driven cash drawer. The drawer connects to the receipt printer rather than directly to the iPad.
Common Customer Question
“I use Loyverse on an iPad. Which Epson printer and cash drawer should I buy?”
If You Want Epson
Epson + Loyverse on iPad
Loyverse's iOS recommendations specifically include the Epson TM-m30 and TM-m30II-SL with Ethernet or Bluetooth connectivity.
The exact model and interface matter. Do not assume every printer carrying the TM-m30 name will work the same way with Loyverse.

Why the interface matters:
“Epson TM-m30” or “Star mC-Print3” alone does not completely identify
how a printer connects. Always verify the exact SKU and interface before ordering.

ShopPOSPortal sells newer Epson TM-m30III configurations, but a newer model should not automatically be assumed to be identical to a printer currently listed by Loyverse for iOS.
If your requirement is specifically Loyverse POS on an Apple iPad, contact us before ordering a newer Epson configuration and we can help verify the model and interface.

Printer-Driven Cash Drawer
In a typical Loyverse checkout, the cash drawer does not connect directly to the iPad.
Instead:
iPad → Receipt Printer → Cash Drawer
The cash drawer cable connects to the receipt printer's drawer port. The printer sends the electrical signal that opens the drawer.
Want a Full-Size Drawer?
For a permanent retail, restaurant, grocery or service counter, a 16 × 16 commercial cash drawer provides significantly more till space than compact tablet-oriented drawers.
Check the printer connection, cable and drawer requirements before purchasing.
Shop full-size cash drawers →Barcode Scanners for Loyverse
Retailers, grocery stores, boutiques and other product-based businesses can add a barcode scanner to speed up item entry at checkout.
1D
Traditional UPC Scanning
A 1D scanner is appropriate when you primarily scan traditional UPC, EAN and other linear product barcodes.
2D
UPC + QR Codes
A 2D scanner reads traditional linear barcodes plus QR codes and other 2D symbols, giving your checkout more flexibility.
Important
iPad Compatibility
Scanner compatibility and pairing methods can differ between iOS and Android. Verify the scanner and connection type before ordering.

Loyverse POS Hardware FAQ
What receipt printer works with Loyverse on an iPad?
Loyverse's iOS recommendations include the Star Micronics mC-Print3
using USB, Bluetooth or Ethernet, along with specific Epson models
such as the TM-m30 and TM-m30II-SL using Ethernet or Bluetooth.
Always verify the exact model and interface.
Which Epson receipt printer works with Loyverse?
For iOS, Loyverse specifically identifies the Epson TM-m30 and
TM-m30II-SL with Ethernet or Bluetooth connectivity. Verify the exact
printer model and interface before purchasing.
Does the Epson TM-m30III work with Loyverse?
The TM-m30III is a newer Epson model sold by ShopPOSPortal, but newer
does not automatically mean that every version is the exact configuration
listed by Loyverse. If you use Loyverse on an iPad and want a TM-m30III,
contact us so the current configuration can be verified.
Does Star mC-Print3 work with Loyverse on iPad?
Yes. Loyverse specifically lists the Star Micronics mC-Print3 among
recommended iOS printers and identifies USB, Bluetooth and Ethernet interfaces.
Can I use a full-size cash drawer with Loyverse?
Yes. A common setup uses a full-size printer-driven cash drawer.
The drawer connects to a compatible receipt printer rather than directly
to the iPad or Android tablet.
Does a Loyverse cash drawer connect directly to the iPad?
Usually no. A printer-driven cash drawer connects to the receipt printer.
The printer sends the signal that opens the drawer during a cash transaction.
Is Ethernet or Bluetooth better for Loyverse on iPad?
Ethernet is often a strong choice for a permanent checkout station because
the printer remains connected to the network. Bluetooth can be useful when
Ethernet cabling is inconvenient. The best choice depends on the exact
printer model and interface.
Can I use a barcode scanner with Loyverse?
Yes. Barcode scanners are commonly used with Loyverse for retail checkout.
Compatibility and connection methods vary between iOS and Android devices,
so verify the exact scanner and interface before purchasing.
Do I need a 1D or 2D barcode scanner?
If you only scan traditional UPC and linear product barcodes, a 1D scanner
may be sufficient. A 2D scanner can also read QR codes and other 2D symbols,
making it a more flexible choice.
Can ShopPOSPortal help me choose a complete Loyverse setup?
Yes. Tell us which device runs Loyverse, whether it is iOS or Android,
which hardware you need, your preferred printer connection and whether
you want a compact or full-size checkout station. We can then help identify
appropriate hardware and accessories.
Not Sure Which Loyverse Hardware to Order?
Tell us something as simple as:
“I'm using Loyverse on an Apple iPad. I need a receipt printer and a full-size cash drawer.”
That's usually enough for our team to start narrowing down the correct printer, interface and cash drawer combination.
