Vagaro will be rolling out this feature to existing US businesses from June 26, 2024 to September 2, 2024. New businesses in the US will have this feature available upon merchant account approval.
See Changes to Vagaro Payments for more information.
Tap to Phone allows customers to pay by simply tapping their contactless-enabled credit card, debit card, or mobile device (such as a smartphone or smartwatch) on a compatible device—no credit card reader is needed. Tap to Phone supports all major credit and debit cards with the NFC icon and digital wallets, like Google Pay, Apple Pay, and Samsung Pay, and you can start accepting credit cards as soon as you sign up for Vagaro Credit Card Processing by connecting your Apple ID to your merchant account, which only takes a few moments. You can add up to three devices with the same Apple ID.
Prerequisites: This feature requires Credit Card Processing, version 6.2.3 of the Vagaro Pro app, and a compatible iPhone (iPhone XS or later running iOS 16.7 or later).

-
Go to Checkout.

In the bottom-left corner, select Connect. If you see Pay with Card, you'll need to turn off any credit card reader attached to your phone.
