Nexi, a European payment technology company, has announced that merchants in Italy can now accept in-person contactless payments using Tap to Pay on iPhone. This service will gradually be expanded to other European countries where it is available.

Introducing Contactless Transactions

Tap to Pay on iPhone enables merchants to accept contactless payments, including those made with credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, and other digital wallets, without needing additional hardware. Merchants can use their iPhones and the Nexi SoftPOS app to facilitate transactions.

During the checkout process, customers can complete payments by holding their contactless card, iPhone, or Apple Watch near the merchant’s iPhone. The transaction is securely processed using NFC technology. Tap to Pay on iPhone also supports PIN entry and includes accessibility options.

Apple’s technology ensures that business and customer data remain private and secure. Card numbers are not stored on the device or Apple servers when a payment is processed.

“Enabling Nexi SoftPOS also on Apple devices provides Italian merchants with more flexibility and choice, resulting in an easier shopping experience for consumers and creating additional revenue opportunities to grow their business,” commented Roberto Catanzaro, Chief Business Officer of Merchant Solutions at Nexi.

SoftPOS Enables Mobile Payment Processing

Nexi’s SoftPOS solution provides a cost-effective, straightforward, and secure way for merchants to accept digital payments. It allows real-time transaction management and easy receipt issuance, offering increased flexibility and mobility for merchants. Payments can be processed from Apple devices at any location, bypassing the need for a fixed cash register.

Merchants using Nexi can activate contactless payment acceptance on an iPhone XS or later running the latest iOS version by downloading the Nexi App from the Apple App Store. This setup allows merchants to start accepting contactless payments within minutes.

“With this expanded mobile offering, we are taking another step toward increasing the adoption of digital payments in Italy and further afield, as we look to help merchants and consumers across Europe benefit from more convenient payment options,” added Catanzaro.
