Accept tap and pay transactions with Tyro’s BYO App

Tap and pay helps retail, hospitality and service businesses accept fast contactless payments wherever they work.

Sole operators and small mobile businesses—like market stall vendors, food trucks, mobile plumbers, tradies, and dog walkers—are quickly adopting tap-to-pay solutions. This technology allows retail businesses to handle more transactions during peak hours and gives mobile service providers the freedom to serve clients wherever they are, without needing a fixed terminal.
