How to connect your SumUp POS with Tavola

Integrating your **SumUp** account with Tavola allows you to automatically pull your daily sales data, enabling real-time cost-of-goods calculations, demand forecasts, and automated theoretical stock tracking. In this article, we explain step by step how to connect your SumUp account. Before starting, make sure you have: 1. An active **Tavola** account subscribed to the **Elite Plan**. 2. An active **SumUp** merchant account with administrator privileges. Your Merchant ID is a unique string identifying your store in the SumUp ecosystem: 1. Log in to your **SumUp Dashboard** (https://me.sumup.com). 2. Click on your profile icon in the top right corner. 3. Your **Merchant ID** (or Merchant Code) will be displayed in the dropdown or under your Account Details section. It is typically a 10-12 character alphanumeric code (e.g., `M1234567890`). 4. Copy this code for later. To authorize Tavola to safely read your sales data, you need to create a secure API token: 1. Inside your **SumUp Dashboard**, navigate to **Settings** or the **Developer Portal**. 2. Locate the **API Keys** or **Developer API Tokens** section. 3. Click on **Create New API Key** or **Generate Token**. 4. In the token name field, write `Tavola Integration`. 5. Grant `transactions.read` or read-only scopes. 6. Click **Generate** and immediately copy the API Key displayed. *Warning: You will only see this token once, so save it securely!* Now that you have both keys, let's configure the connection in Tavola: 1. Log in to your **Tavola Dashboard**. 2. Navigate to the **Integrations** tab in the sidebar settings. 3. Locate the **SumUp** card and click **Configure Integration**. 4. Enter the credentials you retrieved: * **API Key**: Paste the generated SumUp developer token here. * **Merchant ID**: Paste your SumUp merchant code here. 5. Click **Save**. And that's it! Tavola will verify the credentials and activate your nightly automatic sync. From this moment on, your close-of-day sales data will import automatically, saving you hours of manual reporting.
