Apple Pay and Google Pay
Accept Apple Pay and Google Pay in person and online.
Arketa supports Apple Pay and Google Pay through Stripe. Clients can pay with their phone or watch — contactless, fast, and secure.
In-person (WisePOS terminal)
The WisePOS E terminal accepts Apple Pay and Google Pay via NFC (tap to pay). When a client taps their phone or watch to the terminal, Stripe handles the authentication and payment automatically.
No setup required beyond having the WisePOS connected and active. See WisePOS terminal for setup.
[IMAGE TODO] Take a screenshot or photo showing the WisePOS E terminal screen displaying the "Tap to pay" prompt, with the NFC/contactless symbol visible. If possible, show a phone being held near the terminal to illustrate the tap-to-pay gesture.
Online checkout
When clients book through your website or app using a supported browser (Safari on iPhone/Mac, Chrome on Android), Apple Pay and Google Pay appear as payment options automatically if they have those set up on their device.
This requires no additional configuration on your end — Stripe handles the display and authentication.
Requirements
- Stripe must be connected and active on your account
- For in-person: WisePOS E terminal purchased and configured
- For online: Stripe processes it automatically for eligible browsers/devices
No setup for online
Apple Pay and Google Pay appear automatically at your online checkout for eligible clients. Stripe detects the client's device and browser and shows the appropriate payment option.
Apple Pay works in Safari. Google Pay works in Chrome. Clients using other browsers may not see these options.
