Tap to Pay lets a customer pay by tapping a supported contactless card or wallet on your iPhone. Start checkout in Newie and follow the prompts; no separate card reader is needed. You can use it for eligible One-Off Purchases, subscriptions and instalment plans. The payments go through your connected Newie and Stripe payout account.

Check your setup first

Newie can offer setup from Home once your profile and Stripe connection are ready. You can also enable it later from Settings or the service sharing flow. During setup, Display Name sets the business name shown on your iPhone while taking a payment. It is saved with your Tap to Pay location, separately from your Newie profile name. If you rebrand and the contactless screen still shows the old name, contact Newie support with the old and new names so they can check that location’s setup.

Take the contactless payment

  1. Open Sell → Services on your iPhone.
  2. Open the service’s … menu and choose Tap to Pay.
  3. Follow checkout, using an existing customer match only when it is the right person.
  4. Let the customer tap their card or wallet when prompted, then finish every remaining checkout step.
For subscriptions, including future starts, finish the subscription setup after the tap succeeds. Matching the right customer keeps their purchase and receipt history together.

Try another payment path if tapping fails

Try another supported card or Apple Pay, or send the service link. Tap to Pay is available on supported iPhones only. For guided checkout on iPhone or Mac without a contactless payment, use Purchase as Customer. Last updated: 2026-09-11
