Tap to Pay on Mobile Devices
Introducing Kickserv's newest feature: tap to pay for mobile devices! With our latest update, users will be able to again take contactless payments out in the field.
Note: Users must have an Android device running 7.0 and newer or an iPhone XS and newer.
In this article, we will cover:
Setting up Tap to Pay
To start using the tap to pay feature, follow the steps below:
- Make sure your Kickserv account is connected to a fully activated Stripe account.
Note: for a Stripe account to be fully activated, this includes filling out your complete company address in the Kickserv company information page, which includes your city, state, zip code, and country code.
- Make sure the mobile devices you want to use with tap to pay also support NFC technology.
- Lastly, note that all relevant payment permissions and device permissions apply. Employees will need the Kickserv permission to View and Create/Modify Payments. Android devices will need NFC enabled.
Using Tap to Pay
To use the tap to pay feature, follow the steps below:
- On your mobile device, select the Job you'd like to collect a payment on.
- Navigate to the Payments section and select Payments.
Then, select the Tap to Pay button.
- Tap to pay will load to show that the NFC reader is ready. When it shows Reader connected!, select Proceed to payment.
- You'll then be taken to a screen showing your company's name, payment amount, a section to tap your NFC enabled credit card or device.
- Tap the card to the screen to complete the transaction. You'll get a Payment Successful message when the payment is complete.
- You'll now see the balance on the Job has been set to $0.00.
