SoéPay Enables Tap to Pay on iPhone for Hong Kong Merchants
SoéPay now enables its Hong Kong merchants to accept in-person contactless payments through Tap to Pay on iPhone.
The feature supports contactless credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, and other digital wallets, using only an iPhone and the “SoéPay – Tap to Pay” iOS app.
No additional payment terminal or hardware is required.
At checkout, merchants prompt customers to hold a contactless card or device near the merchant’s iPhone, with payments completed through NFC technology.
Tap to Pay on iPhone also supports PIN entry, including accessibility options.
The system relies on iPhone’s built-in security features to protect business and customer data.
Card numbers and transaction information are not stored on the device or on Apple servers when a payment is processed.
Tap to Pay on iPhone via SoéPay is compatible with major card networks.
These include Visa, Mastercard, UnionPay, American Express, and JCB.
SoéPay also offers an accelerated onboarding process.
Merchants using an iPhone XS or later, running the latest iOS version, can begin accepting contactless payments in as little as 60 minutes once all requirements are met.
Onboarding involves two steps: installing the iOS app and completing in-app Know Your Customer (KYC) verification.
says Sam Or, Chief Revenue Officer of SoéPay.
Hong Kong businesses may also access device and data plan offers from Hong Kong Telecommunications.
These offers are available when signing up for Tap to Pay on iPhone through participating payment platforms.
