For merchants: Tap to Pay app setup

This is an operational guide that POS partners can link their merchants to or reproduce in their own onboarding experience. There are two separate processes: setting up the business once, then setting up each device that will accept Tap to Pay.

Before you begin

You will need:

• your POS login;
• the Tyro Tap to Pay app;
• a compatible Android device — see Device requirements;
• Tyro System Administrator credentials to authorise your POS to receive transaction results for each MID;
• Tyro Merchant Portal login credentials (any user role) to set up each device

Authorise your POS (this occurs once at initial setup)

Before setting up a device, the merchant must grant the POS permission to receive transaction results for every Tyro Merchant ID (MID) using Tap to Pay.

Set up each device

Repeat this for every Android device that will accept Tap to Pay payments.

Take a payment

1. Create or open a sale in your POS.
2. Select Tap to Pay as the payment method.
3. Your device opens the Tyro Tap to Pay payment screen.
4. Ask the customer to tap their contactless card or supported digital wallet.
5. Wait for the payment result.
6. When processing is complete, the Tap to Pay app automatically returns to the POS.
