Here's the surprising part: you might not even need any additional hardware! Thanks to a nifty feature called Tap to Pay on iPhone (iOS 15.1 and later), your iPhone itself can become a contactless payment terminal. Just download your chosen payment processing app, enable the feature, and voila! You're ready to accept payments with a simple tap.
However, if your Jedi mind tricks (read: marketing) attract customers who still prefer the old-fashioned swipe or chip-and-pin method, fear not! Most payment processors offer mobile card readers that connect to your iPhone via Bluetooth. These nifty gadgets transform your phone into a full-fledged payment terminal, accepting all types of cards.
