KPay Enables Tap to Pay on iPhone for Hong Kong Merchants

KPay now allows its Hong Kong merchants to accept in-person contactless payments using Tap to Pay on iPhone.

The feature enables businesses to take contactless credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, and other digital wallets directly through an iPhone running the KPay iOS app, without additional hardware.

At checkout, merchants prompt customers to place their contactless payment method near the merchant’s iPhone, with transactions completed through NFC technology.

Tap to Pay on iPhone also supports PIN entry, including accessibility options.

The feature uses the iPhone’s built-in security measures to protect business and customer information.

Apple does not store card numbers or transaction data on the device or Apple servers.

Davis Chan, Co-founder and CEO of KPay, said:
