Split Payments
This page explains how split payments work in Acqui POS.
Entering Split Mode
Section titled “Entering Split Mode”Split mode runs inside the shared Order workspace, so the cart and tab context stay loaded. There are two ways in:
- From the Tab Summary right rail, choose Split.
- From the full-screen Payment surface, open the overflow menu (three-bar icon, top right of the header) and choose Split Tab.
Either path switches the workspace into split mode. Pick the items to move; the footer action becomes Split Tab. Use Cancel to exit without changing the tab.
Core Rules
Section titled “Core Rules”- Split payments are supported on tabs only.
- To split a normal order, convert the order to a tab first.
- Split payment segments can only be refunded in full.
- You can refund individual split payment segments one at a time.
- Partial refunds within a split payment segment are not supported.
- Automatic restock is not available as part of a split payment refund.
Cash Out and Settlement
Section titled “Cash Out and Settlement”- On split tab payments, Cash Out only happens when the balance is settled.
- If Cash Out is needed before settlement, add the Cash Out to the tab beforehand or perform a separate Cash Out workflow where applicable.
- Tab tips are split automatically.
- Tab tip splits are based on each server’s percentage of the sale.
- Cash Out is excluded from split tip calculations.
