Tap to Pay on iPhone is a capability that turns an iPhone into a contactless payment terminal. It allows merchants to accept payments from contactless credit cards, debit cards, and digital wallets (like Apple Pay) by simply having the customer tap their card or device against the merchant’s iPhone. No additional hardware or Bluetooth readers are required.
