What is Apple Pay?
One of the most recent, extremely appealing functions of modern POS systems is the recent introduction of contactless payments into the industry.
Contactless payment options for Micros POS, including Apple Pay, Google Pay, and the most recent tap-to-pay credit and debit cards are compatible with the contactless payment feature due to a special chip built into each device or into each card.
The simplicity of contactless payments is clear; customers can merely hold their phones or cards above the payment terminal, where it reads the data from the NFC chip and finalizes the transaction.
Contactless Convenience
Apple Pay empowers customers by making transactions easier, both from a financial and health perspective. Eliminating the need for cards or cash isn’t just liberating, it’s safer, especially with heightened health concerns in recent years.
Elevated Security Measures
When you can guarantee the security and integrity of sensitive customer data, it makes it easier to build customer confidence. Reducing the risk of fraud isn’t just good for business, but it also provides you with peace of mind.
Guaranteed Customers
When you invest in Apple Pay integrations, you can always be sure that your customers will be able to use the technology. With iPhone users being such a large demographic, you won’t need to worry about whether or not it’ll be used enough.
More Efficient Transactions
Establishments that enable faster transactions have an easier time, reducing wait times and speeding up checkout times.
Is Apple Pay for Micros Secure and Safe?
Apple Pay makes customer security a top priority and has different measure in place that helps guarantee safe transactions.
- Tokenization: As mentioned above, tokenization helps disguise sensitive payment data to keep customer information safe and never stored.
- Biometric authentication: You won’t need to worry if someone is ever using a stolen device, since Apply Pay requires some form of biometric authorization before a payment can be transmitted.
- Secure element component: For an added layer of security, Apple Pay utilizes a chip, called the “secure element” which hosts encrypted information that allows
Apple Pay to access payment information for transactions. This secure storage method prevents any sensitive data from being revealed.
