As of January 1, 2026, Italian law requires every merchant who accepts electronic payments to associate each payment terminal with the corresponding cash register.

This manual explains how restaurant merchants can link their DISH PAY terminals to their electronic cash register (registratore telematico) via the Italian Revenue Agency (“Agenzia delle Entrate”) portal.

This integration ensures that card and digital payments are automatically matched with daily sales data. Failure to comply can result in sanctions.

Key Requirements: Merchants will need their login credentials for the “Fatture e Corrispettivi” reserved area of the Agenzia delle Entrate portal (SPID, CNS, CIE or Entratel/Fisconline). They also need the technical ID of each DISH terminal to be registered:

Below are detailed, step-by-step instructions:

1. Access the Agenzia Entrate Portal

Open the Fatture e Corrispettivi portal. Go to the Agenzia delle Entrate website and click “Area Riservata – Fatture e Corrispettivi” (Invoices & Receipts reserved area).

Log in with your credentials. Authenticate using SPID, CNS, CIE or Entratel/Fisconline. This gives you access to the “Fatture e Corrispettivi” dashboard.

Tip: If you have multiple roles or companies, make sure to select the correct VAT account for your restaurant.

Navigate to the “Corrispettivi” section. Once logged in, look for the Corrispettivi (Daily Receipts) menu. Under this section, select “Gestisci Collegamenti” (Manage Links). This is the dedicated web service for linking payment devices to cash registers.

Select the cash register. In the “Gestisci Collegamenti” interface, you will see a list of the registratori telematici (cash registers) already registered under your account. Click on the cash register you use in your restaurant (or the relevant “unità locale”) to begin pairing.

If you only have one cash register, it will be pre-selected.

If multiple registers are shown, confirm the correct one by checking the location or identifier.

2. Select the acquirer

Make sure to select the below details about the acquirer:

• Denominazione Acquirer: “Adyen N.V.” 
• Acquirer Italiano/Estero: Estero
• CF Acquirer: 97980620153

For the Numero contratto di convenzionamento, please contact DISH Support.

To find your Terminal ID:

For Standalone Terminals

You will find this listed as TID on the transaction receipts printed directly from the terminal. They usually consist of the terminal model and the serial number (i.e., S1F2-0001122334455 or V400m123456789)

For DISH POS Customers using DISH PAY terminals:

Usually, the transaction receipts will be printed on your POS printer, and they will include the data you need to register the terminal based on which terminal you are using.

S1F2, V400m, V400c, P400 Use the TID	Sunmi L2s Pro Handhelds Use the 8-digit PTID

For DISH PAY NOW Customers:

Use the 8-digit PTID

3. Verify Registration and Deadlines

Once saved, the portal will list the newly linked terminal under the cash register’s devices. You should see the terminal’s ID and link date.

Compliance Deadlines: The law will become effective on January 1, 2026. All the terminals active by then must be registered once the Italian Revenue Agency Portal is active. To manage the registration, the law gives a 45-day grace period from the activation of the online service (e.g., if the service opened on March 5, 2026, your registration is due by April 19). For terminals activated after the go-live of the portal, you must at the latest register them at the 6th day of the second month following terminal activation. For example, a payment terminal was activated on 15th May 2026; it must be registered at the latest by 6th of July.

After linking, your DISH PAY terminals are legally associated with your cash register, satisfying the 2026 regulatory requirement. Each time you add or replace a terminal (or change a cash register), repeat this process. Always retain records or screenshots of successful registrations in case of future audits.
