Scan the QR code from the Dashboard to link this iPad to a branch
Open in dashboardCash Drawers โ Devices
Overview
Pairing is a one-time flow that binds an iPad to a single branch. The Dashboard generates a QR code, the iPad's Klu app scans it, and the two are linked until the device is explicitly unpaired. After pairing, the iPad lands on the PIN screen and is ready for cashiers.
When to use it
- Setting up a brand-new iPad for the first time
- Replacing an iPad that broke or is being retired
- Adding a second register at an existing branch

Tips & gotchas
- QR codes expire after a few minutes โ if the scan fails, close the modal in the Dashboard and click Link Device again to regenerate.
- Alternative: from the iPad itself, tap dashboard.klupos.com/cash-drawers on the welcome screen and click Link Device โ the Dashboard can deep-link the token back into the Klu app without a QR scan.
- The first time you open the camera, iOS asks for permission. If you deny by mistake, grant it later from iPad Settings โ Klu โ Camera.
