Get Started With Tap to Pay
Categories and articles
With Tap to Pay, you accept contactless card payments using your phone. Use the installed Vendion app. Tap to Pay does not work just by opening Vendion in a browser, or on an iPad.
Check the phone:
- iPhone: iPhone XS or newer with iOS 17.6 or later. If the phone runs an older iOS version, the app tells you to update when you try to connect – do so under Settings → General → Software Update. Enable a device passcode.
- Android: a compatible, certified phone with NFC, Android 12 or later and current security updates. The Android version and NFC alone do not guarantee support.
Requirements can change. Check Adyen's current iPhone requirements or Android requirements before choosing a phone.
Prepare the restaurant: Card payments must be activated. Staff need Ta betalt med Tap to Pay permission. A manager can check permissions under Användare → Behörighetsgrupper.
Connect the phone:
- Open the register in the Vendion app on the phone you will use.
- Open the register menu, then Kassainställningar → Enheten (Register settings → Device).
- Find Den här enheten · Tap to Pay and select Anslut (connect).
- Follow the setup instructions. On iPhone, Apple's terms and a walkthrough may appear.
If the register offers Tap to Pay setup when starting a payment, you can follow that flow too. Connect each phone that will be used.
The first connection can take a couple of minutes. The phone configures itself and downloads payment certificates, and the button counts seconds meanwhile. Let it finish – this happens only once per phone.
One phone belongs to one register at a time. Connecting makes the phone that register's card terminal. Connect the same phone to another register and the link moves there. This is why a Tap to Pay phone does not appear under Enheter → Kortterminaler – that list is only for physical terminals.
On iPhone, Guide on the same settings row lets you reopen the walkthrough.
