Happy to have found an app that lets me take payments with my phone. Easy to set up , easy to use and no contract. I go to markets and I used to have an Eftpos machine, most people pay cash and I did use the Eftpos machine only a few times a month, with a contract for a minimum of 1 year and a big monthly cost, in comparison I now pay a small amount on each transaction and it makes it a lot cheaper for me. I can recommend it highly a good solution for small entrepreneurs.

As a small stall holder, this app is exactly what is needed to take payments via credit card. Having the ability to offer this form of payment has definitely improved sales. It saves on using pricy EFTPOS machines with monthly charges, especially when you don't know if you will get a sale on the day or not. One improvement I would like to see is the ability to take debit card payments that don't have a cvc number. I have lost a few sales due to customers not having a credit card or cash to pay for the items. Overall well worth having.

Thanks for the feedback and suggestion. Although it's technically possible to make the cvc field optional, the problem is that it hugely increases the fraud rate and risk. Obviously that's an issue for everyone - us, Stripe, most merchants, most card holders & banks... Hope that helps explain why the cvc field is required.

This is the best option for connecting to your stripe account for accepting mobile credit card payments. Their commission rate is fair and interface pretty clean and intuitive. However like other users of Samsung S7 edge, the NFC reading is unreliable and the on-screen keyboard interferes with the input screen. These are likely to be phone make and model issues rather than app issues but when there is a queue of people waiting, their frustration and operator anxiety rise rapidly. Resolution of NFC issue would earn 5 stars.

Thanks for your detailed review. I'm really glad you like the app overall. I've not heard of problems with NFC on Samsung S7 edge, so if you would like help troubleshooting that, please do reach out - hello@paynow-app.com If it's something we can fix on the app side, we will. If it's hardware, it would be good to confirm that diagnosis.
