Discover the quick set-up of the Ebriza platform and choose the hardware package that works for your business.
i. No server. Offline first.
Ebriza POS works without the need for a server installed on site. Regardless of the number of devices, they are synchronized with each other using the local network. You don't need the internet to work, you just need it to sync your data in the cloud for reporting.
1. iOS and Android devices
Important: the equipment listed in this article applies to the current (old) Ebriza apps. The new apps — Ebriza POS NEXT for the POS and Ebriza KDS for the kitchen display — run on iPad only, are downloaded from the App Store, and need a screen of at least 10 inches. We plan to replace all of the old apps with new versions during this year, so if you are buying equipment now, choose iPads with a screen of at least 10 inches.
iOS and Android devices that operate as a POS terminal connected via WiFi to cash registers or thermal printers.
2. Router
Any type of router that provides a secure network connection. It facilitates communication between all connected devices.
3. Cash register
Cash register for printing tax receipts. It connects to the network via ethernet or WiFi cable, depending on the model. Go to the Ebriza POS settings, add the desired model and we will find it automatically in the network. No drivers or configuration.
4. Thermal printer
Prints receipts automatically from the tablet. You can use as many printers as you need, one for each work section. Just configure the tags and the products will print to the correct printer.

POS (Viva Wallet), Soft Payments (GP Tom)
Hardware integrated with Ebriza

6. Zebra — Label Printer
A self-adhesive label printer that prints product labels, not order receipts or fiscal receipts. It connects to the network via a LAN cable and is added from the Devices menu.
Important: Zebra also makes a barcode scanner — this is a different device, listed below in the Retail section, and it is set up completely differently (via Bluetooth, from the tablet’s settings).
Bank POS
1. VIVA Wallet
The Viva Wallet Android POS terminal connects to your phone or tablet over the network. You connect the terminal in the same way you connect a cash register. Viva Wallet terminal integration works in Ebriza POS NEXT (on iPad) and, in the old app, only on Android devices. If you are using the old app on an iPad or iPhone, you need to switch to Ebriza POS NEXT to use the terminal.
2. GP Tom app
Turn your Android phone into a POS terminal. Soft payments allow you to accept card payments directly on your phone that already runs Ebriza.
Router
1. AmpliFi HD Mesh Router
The AmpliFi™ HD (High Density) Mesh Router can be used as a stand-alone router or with other AmpliFi™ Mesh Routers for multi-hop, self-healing wireless coverage and enhanced range.
Important: You can use any other type of router but it is very important to be properly configured to avoid connection problems
Dibal Scale
Only Dibal scales are supported. The scale does not connect to Ebriza and is not added to the device list: it prints a barcode label, and the data reaches Ebriza POS when the label is scanned with the barcode scanner. The product must have the PLU from the label as its SKU and the unit of measurement set to KG or G - the steps are described in the article “How to configure a barcode scanner with Ebriza POS NEXT?”
Important: Zebra manufactures scanners and label printers, not scales. If you were told that you have a “Zebra scale,” it is most likely a Zebra scanner that reads the label printed by a scale from another brand.
Frequently asked questions
Q: Can I use an Epson fiscal printer with Ebriza?
A: No. Epson is compatible only as a non-fiscal thermal printer (models TM-T20, TM-T88 etc.). For fiscal receipts, use one of the compatible cash registers listed above: Datecs (DP25, DP150, WP500) or Partner (200, 600).
Q: Which Epson printer models can I connect to Ebriza as a thermal printer?
A: Epson printer models are compatible with our application if they can connect via LAN cable or wireless to the network. For network stability, we recommend wired connection to the router, with the device running the Ebriza app connected to the same network.
Q: Can I enable a sound when order receipts are printed?
A: This setting cannot be configured from the Ebriza app, as it depends on each printer model's hardware configuration. Contact the printer supplier for assistance — some models offer this hardware feature.
