With Tap to Pay you can use your phone to take payments, without the need for a card reader or additional hardware.
What is Tap to Pay?
Tap to Pay lets you take in-person contactless payments using only your phone. It’s built into your Lopay app, so you can accept contactless debit and credit cards, and Apple Pay or Google Pay payments in only a few simple steps. Just present your phone to your customer and they can tap it with their card or phone like they would a card reader.
Tap to Pay means that everything you need to make a sale is already in your pocket. You can get set up in a few steps, and there’s no need to buy or manage new card readers.
In the context of your transactions, it’s important to be aware that using an RFID-blocking phone case might interfere with the NFC (Near Field Communication) functionality on your phone. NFC is essential for contactless transactions, including tap-to-pay payments. Therefore, it’s advisable to avoid cases that may disrupt these signals to ensure seamless and secure transactions.
RFID stands for Radio-Frequency Identification, and an RFID phone case typically contains material that blocks radio signals.
How much does it cost?
When using Tap to Pay you will pay your usual transaction fee based on your payout schedule, plus 8p per transaction.
Can I still use other payment methods?
Yes. Once you've set up Tap to Pay you can still use other payment methods available with Lopay such as a card reader or payment links.
