Merchants using SwipeSimple can now accept all types of in-person, contactless payments right on their iPhone. Terms apply.
NEW YORK, Oct. 23, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — CardFlight, Inc, and Worldpay®, a global leader in payment technology, today announced Tap to Pay on iPhone is now available to all SwipeSimple® merchants. Tap to Pay on iPhone is an easy, private, and secure way to ensure a SwipeSimple Worldpay merchant will always have the tools needed to accept a payment right on their iPhone — no additional hardware or payment terminal needed.
Tap to Pay on iPhone
With Tap to Pay on iPhone, at checkout, merchants will simply prompt the customer to hold their contactless payment method – such as a contactless debit or credit card, Apple Pay, or other digital wallet – near the merchant’s iPhone, and the payment will be securely completed using NFC technology.
Apple’s Tap to Pay on iPhone technology uses the built-in security and privacy features of iPhone to help protect your business and customer data. Apple doesn’t store card numbers or transaction information on the device or on Apple servers, so merchants and customers can rest assured that their data stays theirs.*
“With Tap to Pay on iPhone and SwipeSimple, our merchants have access to flexible options enabling them to take payments wherever they do business, using a device they already have in their pocket,” said Cindy Turner, chief product officer, Worldpay. “It’s a natural upgrade for service business, professional offices, local retail, and for growing teams that want speed and reliability.”
“SwipeSimple is built to make in-person payments easy and Tap to Pay on iPhone complements our mission perfectly,” said Robert Newton, VP of Product at CardFlight. “Merchants can begin using it immediately after opting in and keep payments flowing with the iPhone they already carry.”
