Tap to Pay: Simple, fast, and ready for your Restaurant

Guess what? If your customers already tap their cards or phones at the grocery store, they expect to do the same with their favorite restaurants. “Tap to pay” has taken off worldwide and keeps growing every year. It speeds up lines, cuts down on handling cash, and feels natural to customers who already tap on buses, trains, and in stores.

What “tap to pay” actually means

It’s just a quick, contactless way to take payment. A customer holds a contactless card or smartphone near your reader, and the sale is done—no swiping, no chip insert, no PIN for most small purchases. The tech behind it (called NFC) is built into modern cards and phones.

Why customers love it (and you will too)

• It’s easy. A quick tap and they’re on their way—great for busy lines.

• It feels familiar. People already tap to ride transit or at larger retailers, so they know what to do.

• It’s safer. Phones use Face ID/Touch ID and a one-time “token” instead of the actual card number, so sensitive info isn’t exposed at checkout.

Make checkout smoother—anywhere you sell

Whether you’re at the counter, walking the restaurant floor, or taking payments on-site at a catering job, tap to pay keeps things moving and gives customers the checkout experience they expect.
