Setting Up ApplePay/AndroidPay

Overview: What are we talking about?

Bolt Terminals now support the ability to accept contactless payment methods such as ApplePay, AndroidPay and contactless cards. This payment type uses near-field communication (NFC), which allows the customer to tap the terminal device with either their phone or contactless card to pay. 

Helpful Hints: Before you begin.

• NFC transactions produce single-use tokens, whereas standard credit and debit transactions produce multi-use tokens. This means that customer profiles and tokens cannot be saved from any NFC transaction.
  
  
• For AndroidPay, SamsungPay, ApplePay and other virtual wallet contactless payments, the customer must have the app set up on their phone.
