Request Merchant Config

This endpoint allows you to retrieve merchant configuration information from a payment device. The terminal will respond with available merchants, currencies, and terminal details.

This method is rate limited to 1 request per 500ms per pollId.

Flow:

Send request to terminal.
Terminal processes request.
Terminal sends response via webhook to the specified callback URL.

Nota

404 does not mean failure: A 404 Not Found response means the terminal has not yet returned a merchant configuration. This is normal and expected — you should continue polling. Only stop polling when you receive a 200 OK (response available) or 408 Request Timeout (response expired).
Responses have a TTL: If you do not poll within the timeout window, the response expires. You will need to send a new /poll/requestMerchantConfig request to try again.
Merchant configuration requests do not trigger a SALE_RECEIVEDevent. The terminal immediately processes the request and returns the list of merchants via a MERCHANT_CONFIG callback.
