Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What cards does the Tap to Pay service accept?

Currently, our Tap to Pay service by Paylands supports payments with Visa and Mastercard credit and debit cards. We are continually working to expand our range of accepted cards, so we recommend staying tuned for future updates.

Can customers pay with Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Samsung Pay?

Yes! Our Tap to Pay service is compatible with various popular digital wallets, such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay. This means that customers can choose to pay conveniently with their digital wallet, either through their mobile device or smartwatch, instead of using a physical card. Additionally, this option provides an extra level of security and ease of use in transactions.

Why should the card be tapped on the back of the phone and not the front?

The fundamental reason for tapping the card on the back of the phone instead of the front lies in the placement of the NFC antenna in most Android phones. NFC technology enables contactless data transmission between devices, as in the case of payment transactions. In Android phones, this NFC antenna is strategically located on the back of the device.

Initially, it may be confusing for some customers, as intuition suggests tapping the card on the front of the phone. However, it is crucial to explain this, and over time, customers will adapt and appreciate the efficiency of contactless payment.

Can customers receive a receipt?

With the Tap to Pay feature, your customers can instantly receive a digital receipt of their transaction, which not only speeds up the process but also reduces paper consumption and contributes to environmental conservation. We offer 4 different options to send a receipt to the cardholder:

  • Email
  • SMS
  • QR code
  • Printing through a Bluetooth-connected printer
Can returns be processed?

Yes, with Tap to Pay, you can accept payments from your customers and process returns. The process is similar to making a payment; you enter the amount in the returns section, and the customer needs to tap the card used for the transaction.

Can I accept tips with Tap to Pay?

Of course! With Tap to Pay, your customers can leave tips, either as a percentage of the purchase (5%, 10%, 15%) or as a custom amount.

Which devices are eligible to use Tap to Pay?

Currently, only Android devices can use Tap to Pay. They must be Android devices with an NFC reader and have Android version 8 or higher installed. If you use the device for card payments, you can also use it to receive payments.

For iOS devices, Apple plans to make it available in the European continent in early 2024. Until now, it’s available in the US, UK, and Australia, but you can check the complete list on their website.
