# Going live with getpos

> Opening the payment account, the terminal, the control unit and the switch to real payments.

Going live happens inside getpos, under **Go live**, as a checklist that ticks itself off from what actually exists.

1. **Your company.** Enter the organisation number. getpos fills in the company name and address from the company registry (Bolagsverket in Sweden).
2. **Your payment account.** Surfboard Payments opens an account in the company's name. On their page you check the details, add the bank account for payouts, see and accept the card fees, and sign with BankID. Someone else can sign for the company from a link.
3. **A terminal.** Register a Surfboard terminal, or a phone with Tap to Pay, to the till's store.
4. **Receipts.** Set the cash register name printed on every receipt, and in Sweden the serial number of the control unit (kontrollenhet), which must be connected before the first real sale.
5. **Switch.** The till keeps taking demo payments until the owner switches it to real payments. Nothing changes for the cashiers.
