Overview
We offer the ability to prevent access to ClickPOS unless logging in via a pre-set IP Address associated with your location.
Important Note: Before proceeding with this guide, please ensure your location (router) has what is known as a 'Static' IP Address
You will be required to contact your Internet Service Provider and verify/request a static IP address.
You may proceed once you have a guaranteed static IP address.
If you proceed without a static IP address you risk the chance of locking yourself out of ClickPOS.
