    If you accept payments while selling goods and services, Apple Pay can help you speed up the payment process while securely accepting payments. Since there is no need to stick a card into a machine, users won't have to fumble looking for a card when they can put their whole wallet on Apple Pay and check out easily.

    It makes client communication extremely easy - we can message and schedule online appointments. Clients really like those options. We also like the online payment portal. That way clients can pay at their convenience, and we don't end up with credit card information that requires PCI compliance. It also helps with payments. It would also help with invoicing, but unfortunately, there are only 3 linked payment options (Square, Stripe, and PayPal). If you don't use one of those payment processors, you cannot link to billing.

    Pros
    Apple
    • The double click which launches it couldn't be easier; you don't even have to open your phone and find the app.
    • It's pretty much fool proof from there, as just holding your phone near the reader is sufficient for success.
    • Haptic feedback ensures that I know the payment registered.
    • I have full faith and confidence that the transaction was executed securely.

    Cons
    Apple
    • At times, my Apple Pay will pop up unintentionally. Perhaps there can be more safeguards around that.
    • Apple Pay is not super great if I need to make a return. For any return, I've found that paper receipts are superior.
    • Apple Pay sometimes requires very specific positioning when scanning the phone, which is frustrating.

    • Payment collection: We want to have an option to allow clients to choose the amount they wish to pay.
    • Improved ease of use with forms.

    Overall - easy to use. There are some missing features (like fillable pdf forms), and it also requires using certain credit card processors to link billing (otherwise it doesn't work).

    I do miss the days when I could easily call up a rep and talk to them about any issues I had with the service. But I still do hear back from the customer service rep during the week within 24 hours.

    When I had my Android/Samsung phone, I tried Samsung's version of Apple Pay and it was terrible. It was very glitchy, and sometimes I would get a notification that I paid for something when I wasn't even in a checkout screen, like I was just browsing the internet or something and I'd get a notification! It was alarming and I quickly uninstalled the app and never used it again.

    I liked vCita a lot more for my home services company mainly because it handled scheduling through the software which was terrific.

    • I have no clue
    • I'm assuming that we would not have people making appointments with us if we didn't have this service
