Products in Nayax represent the items or services operators offer, such as snacks, beverages, or digital products. Each product is uniquely identified and tied to specific attributes like pricing, barcode, packaging, and nutritional details. Products are essential for creating catalogs, managing inventory, and ensuring accurate transactions in vending machines or other systems. In Nayax Core, you can create a product in the following way:
  1. Go to Administration> Products.
  2. Click Create > Add Product
  3. Fill in the required fields in the form:
    1. Operator: Choose under which operator the product is located.
    2. Group: Choose the group of products from the operator to which this product belongs.
    3. Product Name
    4. Status: whether the product is active or not.
  4. Click Save to finish.
