Tap-on-Glass Solution

Every Smartphone Is Now a Card Machine.

Transform smartphones into payment acceptance devices without requiring traditional card machines — accept contactless card and mobile wallet payments anywhere.

Overview

Every Smartphone Is Now a Card Machine.

Traditional card machines are expensive, need maintenance, and tie a merchant to a fixed point of sale. Tap-on-Glass turns any NFC-enabled smartphone into a payment acceptance device, so a merchant can accept contactless card and mobile wallet payments the moment they have a phone in hand — at a market stall, a delivery doorstep, or a pop-up store.

Because it's built on the same platform as our wallet and settlement infrastructure, funds accepted through Tap-on-Glass settle through the same rails as every other payment method you support.
