UK-based payments company, myPOS, is introducing Tap-to-Pay on iPhone for businesses in the UK. 

With this introduction, Tap-to-Pay is available within the myPOS Glass app and allows merchants to accept contactless payments directly on their iPhones, without any additional hardware required. 

myPOS clients with compatible phones, iPhone XS or later versions, are able to accept contactless payments by downloading and opening the myPOS Glass app, ringing up the sale, and presenting their iPhone to the customer. On the other side, the shopper only needs to tap a contactless payment method like Apple Pay, Google Pay, and other digital wallets or contactless cards.

Furthermore, the press release highlights that merchants who are new to the myPOS platform can start using Tap-to-Pay on iPhone with myPOS Glass after opening an account and going through online verification. By becoming a myPOS client, users are able to benefit from a free merchant account, a free business card, as well as immediate deposits of all accepted payments at no extra cost. 

The company states that all transactions are encrypted and secure. Business and customer payment data is safeguarded by the same technology that keeps Apple Pay private. So, when a payment is processed, card numbers are not stored on the device, the myPOS app or on Apple servers. 

As global smartphone penetration and contactless adoption continue to spread, myPOS wants to ensure that even the smallest merchants have the technology to grow their sales. Therefore, with Tap-to-Pay on iPhone and myPOS Glass, business owners can start taking payments in the store or on the go.
