## Create embedded payments connection

 - [POST /tap-to-pay/connections](https://docs.connect.tyro.com/api-explorer/tap-to-pay/1.0/connections/create-embedded-payments-connection.md): When your App is first initialised, a request is sent to your server to establish a Tyro Embedded Payments connection. This is required to connect to the Embedded Payments reader. Upon receiving the client request, authenticate your user and send the request to Tyro with the readerId in the request body.
