Before a Spark feature works on a terminal, you configure the machine in Nayax Core, the Nayax back-office system. First, confirm your Operator is linked to your Spark provider. Then select or create the machine and open the page for the feature you are integrating.

Prerequisites

You need the following before you start:
  • A VPOS Touch or Onyx terminal that is not connected through a cable.
  • An account in Nayax Core with an actor, a machine, and a user role.
  • Your Spark provider entity set up in Nayax Core.
You must log in to Nayax Core with your credentials before any action described on this page.
Certain provider-level configurations are managed internally by Nayax and are not exposed in the Nayax Core interface. If you need one of these changed, contact your Nayax Support representative.

Device Firmware Requirements

To procure a Nayax device, power supply, and cables, contact your Nayax Sales representative. To support the Spark features you plan to use, the device must run one of the firmware versions below, or a newer official version:

Associate Your Operator with Spark

Confirm that your Operator is associated with your Spark entity in Nayax Core:
1

Open the Operator Screen

Log in to Nayax Core, then click Administration > Operator.
2

Find Your Operator

Start typing the Operator name in the Operator search bar and select it from the suggestions, then click Search. Alternatively, click Search and locate the Operator in the hierarchy.
3

Open the VAS Provider Tab

Select the Operator in the hierarchy, then click the VAS Provider tab. Under the Spark section, your Spark integration name appears in the Provider Name field.
If you do not see the VAS Provider tab, or the Provider Name under the Spark section is not your Spark integration name, contact your Nayax Support representative.

Select or Create Your Machine

Open the machine you want to configure for Spark, or create one if none exists:
1

Open the Machines Screen

Log in to Nayax Core, then click Operations > Machines.
2

Find Your Machine

Start typing your Operator name in the Operator search bar and select it from the suggestions, then click Search. Alternatively, click Search and locate the Operator in the hierarchy. A list of machines appears with their actor tree.
3

Open or Create the Machine

Click the machine you want to configure. If no machine is available, you can create a new machine or duplicate an existing one. For step-by-step guidance, click the Need Assistance button on the right.

Set the Machine Model

For a new machine, under General Information > General > Machine Model, use the machine model suggested by Nayax Support. The machine model determines the initial machine configuration in Nayax Core, which can save you steps later. You can change or add configurations to the initial setup at any time.
