Paypal and Venmo Now Support Apple’s Tap to Pay Contactless Payments
Kanesa David — November 4, 2022 — Business
PayPal is making the purchasing process easier with the integration of Apple’s Tap to Pay technology on the PayPal and Venmo IOS apps. This will allow merchants to accept contactless credit, debit, and mobile payments without having to rely on an external card reader and will also encourage consumers to take advantage of the new method of payment. Apple initially introduced Tap to Pay in February 2022, and this integration is notable as it will persuade consumers to choose PayPal over the payment company’s competitors.
Paypal also recently announced that Venmo would be added as a payment option on Amazon in the near future. Interested parties can expect Tap to Pay functionality to be added to PayPal and Venmo “soon,” as promised by the company.
