Enable Tap to Pay on iPhone

With Tap to Pay on iPhone and the POS, you can accept all types of in-person, contactless payments right on your iPhone — from physical debit and credit cards to Apple Pay and other digital wallets — no extra readers or hardware needed. It's easy, secure, and private.

Requirements

• iPhone XS or later.
• A version of iOS released within the past year. Apple supports Tap to Pay on a rolling one-year window — any release from the past year qualifies, including minor and patch updates.
• Tap to Pay won't work on beta versions of iOS.

Note: If your iOS version falls outside the one-year window, Tap to Pay stops working until you update it under Settings > General > Software Update.
