Tap to Pay is changing the game for payments in Switzerland, and honestly, it's pretty cool. Have you tried it yet? If so, you know it's super fast and convenient. If not, it's time to give it a try!

This changes everything

In Switzerland, more than 50% of in-person transactions are now contactless. It's not just a trend; it's become essential. Tap to Pay payments are up to ten times faster than traditional methods. No more long lines and slow payments (Bank for International Settlements) (Fit Small Business).

For merchants, it's a real simplification. Tap to Pay reduces cash register errors and streamlines transactions. You can accept payments anywhere: markets, events, wherever you are. About 55% of Swiss consumers regularly use digital wallets, so it's crucial to stay in the game (Bank for International Settlements) (Fit Small Business).

Goodbye entry barriers

One of the best things about Tap to Pay is that it makes card payments much more accessible. Previously, merchants had to invest in expensive and complicated payment terminals. Today, with Tap to Pay available on Android and iPhone, a smartphone is all you need to accept contactless payments. It's simple, fast, and anyone can do it without breaking the bank.
