# S700 Terminal Membership Processing > Source: https://support.associationsphere.com/s700-terminal-membership-processing | Updated: 2025-10-06T18:12:05Z Once a user has been assigned a Stripe S700 Terminal, they can launch any online Membership form within their AssociationSphere account and use the terminal to process in-person credit card payments for memberships. **Using the Membership Form** - If the member already has a Constituent record, we recommend opening the Membership form directly from that Constituent’s profile. - Alternatively, after launching the Membership form, you can use the **Constituent Search** bar at the top of the screen to find and select an existing Constituent. This will automatically populate their billing information into the Membership form. - Please note: if the Constituent already has a credit card saved on file, the terminal **cannot** be used to process a payment with that saved card. **Selecting the Terminal as Payment Method** 1. Launch the Membership form and complete all required enrollment selections. 2. Enter or verify the member’s billing information. 3. Under the **Payment Type** menu at the bottom of the page, select **Credit Card**. 4. A **Payment Method** menu will appear. From this menu, select **Terminal**. 5. The standard **Submit** button will be replaced with a blue **Pay with Card Reader** button. 6. Click **Pay with Card Reader** to activate the terminal. **Processing the Payment** - If the terminal is powered off, not connected to Wi-Fi, or not assigned to your user account, an error message will appear. - When active, the terminal will display the total transaction amount and prompt you to **tap or insert** the card. - A beep will confirm the card has been read. - The terminal will then display either a success message (if the transaction is approved) or an error message (e.g., if the card was declined). **Transaction Confirmation** - The Membership form will update to show either a confirmation or error message. - Successful transactions will automatically appear on both the **Membership grid** and the **Transactions grid** within AssociationSphere.
