Stripe Terminal integration

Tap, chip, and contactless card payments on Stripe's own hardware — the Stripe WisePOS E smart reader or the compact Stripe Reader M2. Reliable, PCI-compliant processing end to end.

🔒

Kiosk lock mode

App auto-launches on boot, locks to full-screen, and requires an admin PIN to exit. No accidental navigation, no distractions.

📡

Offline resilience

WiFi drops during a service? Donations queue locally and sync automatically when connectivity restores. Configurable alert threshold ensures staff know before the queue grows.

🎨

Branded idle screen

Your organization's name, logo, and colors on every screen. Between donations, the idle screen shows your welcome message and live campaign progress — ready for the next supporter to tap.

📱

Fleet management

Register multiple kiosks per organization. Monitor health, battery, reader status, and offline queue depth from the admin dashboard — all in real time.

📂

Category selection on device

Supporters choose where their gift goes before tapping. Categories are pulled live from your dashboard settings — add, reorder, or hide categories without touching the tablet.

Any phone becomes a giving kiosk

With the included brand mobile app, the Alora app ships full kiosk mode with Stripe Tap to Pay built in. A supporter taps their card — or their own phone — directly on a staff member's Android phone, and the donation is done. No reader, no tablet, no stand.

It's the way in-person giving starts on day one, and the way it roams on event night: staff carrying Tap to Pay phones table to table at the gala while the kiosks hold the lobby.

Works on any NFC-capable Android phone — no card reader needed
Same 3-tap flow, same campaigns, same dashboard as tablet kiosks
Roaming staff take giving to the donor at galas, dinners, and check-in
Graduate to tablets and Stripe readers when you're ready — Community includes 1 kiosk license; Enterprise includes 10 device licenses

Kiosks at live fundraising events

Galas, benefit dinners, giving days, walkathons — place kiosks at registration, near the stage, and at the exit. Every tap feeds the same campaign goal in real time.

🎯

Live thermometer on the idle screen

The kiosk shows your campaign's progress between donations — attendees see how close you are to the goal and feel the momentum building.

📡

Multiple kiosks, one campaign

Deploy 2, 5, or 10 kiosks across the venue. Every donation from every kiosk counts toward the same goal — plus online and mobile gifts arriving simultaneously.

📲

Roam the room with Tap to Pay

Staff carrying NFC Android phones in kiosk mode take giving to every table — no lines at the kiosk, no card reader to pass around.

Fast checkout — 15 seconds

Category → amount → tap card. No forms, no email required. The supporter walks away in under 15 seconds. Perfect for high-traffic event moments.
