Eventdex introduces Tap to Pay at Events

The feature, powered by Stripe and Square, allows any iOS device to function as a contactless payment terminal. Attendees can complete transactions using credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, or digital wallets, reducing wait times and streamlining the registration process. 

Attendees simply tap their card or device, collect their event badge, and enter the event. This feature is expected to make payment processes more efficient and help event organisers manage transactions quickly while improving overall event flow. For organisers, the new payment system simplifies event management by reducing the need for manual card entries and physical handling of payment methods. By leveraging Stripe and Square’s security features, the system ensures that all transactions are encrypted and secure, adding another layer of confidence for both organizers and attendees. 

The Tap to Pay feature is integrated into Eventdex’s Scan Attendee app, enhancing the platform’s existing capabilities. This integration reduces logistical challenges and provides a smooth payment and badge printing process. Available in countries where Stripe and Square operate, the feature is designed to offer a seamless solution for event payments at various touchpoints.
