Questions merchants ask
Is Tap to Pay available for every phone?
No. It needs a compatible device and OS, and coverage depends on country. We do not claim device certifications we have not been granted.
Can freelancers use Tap to Pay?
Yes — Freelancer accounts on BaxPay Business can request SoftPOS Preview Access. Fingerprint terminals remain Business-only.
Do I still need payment terminals?
Only if you want a dedicated counter reader. Many shops start with Tap to Pay on phone and add readers later.
Accept cards without buying a reader first.
