Common questions

Not yet. Flow POS currently requires an active internet connection for M2 payments. Stripe Terminal supports offline features for some reader/platform combinations, but Flow POS does not expose offline mode yet.

The M2 can be paired to one device at a time. You can unpair and re-pair to switch devices as needed.

No - the Stripe Reader M2 is currently US only. For international availability, see the WisePad 3 which works in 20+ countries.
