Who can use Tap to Pay?

How to set up Tap to Pay
Log in to the Zempler app and go to Pay > Get paid > Take a card payment.
The first time you do this, you’ll be redirected to Stripe within the app, to complete set up.
Once Stripe has been linked with your Zempler account, you can take your first contactless payment. Enter the payment amount and prompt the customer to tap their card or device.
The payment will load and show as ‘Done’. It may ask the customer to enter a PIN if the amount is above £100.
On the ‘Payment complete’ page, you’ll have the option to share a receipt with your customer.
Payouts to your Zempler account are set to be processed automatically (minimum amount £1). Your waiting period for your first payout from Stripe is typically seven working days (up to 14). For subsequent payments, you should receive the money within three working days.

Your questions, answered
To refund a customer, visit the Payments overview page in your Stripe account. To do this, log in to the Zempler app and go to Pay > Get Paid > Manage card payments > Transactions.
For any other queries relating to refunds, see the Stripe support page.
Once the customer has tapped to pay and the payment has gone through, a ‘payment complete’ screen will appear on your phone.
Tap the button ‘Share receipt’. This will open up a QR code that your customer can scan, taking them to a Stripe URL with the receipt.
Alternatively, tap on ‘Share another way’ underneath the QR code, where you can share the receipt via email, text message, or other phone apps such as WhatsApp.
