Tap to Pay on iPhone allows entrepreneurs and companies of all sizes in Belgium and in Luxembourg to accept all types of in-person, contactless payments, from physical debit and credit cards to Apple Pay and other digital wallets, using only an iPhone and the Worldline Tap on Mobile  app - no additional hardware or payment terminal needed.

Apple’s Tap to Pay on iPhone technology uses the built-in security and privacy features of iPhone to help protect business and customer data. Apple doesn’t store card numbers on Apple servers, so merchants and customers can rest assured that their data stays theirs.* 

Using Tap to Pay on iPhone with the Worldline Tap on Mobile app is easy, secure, and private. At checkout, merchants simply prompt customers to hold their preferred contactless payment method near the merchant’s iPhone, and the payment will be securely completed using NFC technology.

Tap to Pay on iPhone can be used both independently and as a complement to an existing payment terminal. Sales consultants can use their iPhone to complete the checkout process anywhere in the store, providing customers with a more personalized and seamless shopping experience, eliminating the need for customers having to go to the checkout and wait in line. Other areas of application are catering businesses, delivery services, taxi services and market traders.

Stephan Jacobs, Head of SMB BENELUX at Worldline Merchant Services, explains: “At Worldline, we empower merchants of all sizes to thrive in the digital age by offering numerous payment possibilities in an ever-evolving world. With Tap on Mobile and Tap to Pay on iPhone enhancing our suite of solutions in Belgium and in Luxembourg, consumers can pay effortlessly with cards or digital wallets in the same secure way as always. We’re excited for Belgian and Luxembourgish merchants to leverage this innovation to enhance customer experiences and streamline operations.”

Tap to Pay on iPhone enables Belgian and Luxembourgish customers to use a payment solution that is easy to set up and use. Merchants can simply download the Worldline Tap on Mobile iOS app from the Apple App Store on an iPhone XS or later, running the latest version of iOS, to start accepting contactless payments within minutes.

*Encrypted card numbers are temporarily stored on iPhone only for transactions made in Store and Forward mode.
