Stripe’s native app now provides the ability to enter an amount and accept tap-to-pay or card-not-present transactions. Use it and save the additional margin charged by this app. To stay relevant, PayNow needs to add basic POS functionality such as item catalog and prices similar to other POS apps. ### 3/5 — NFC inactivo *2024-12-27* Según desarrollador, el pago con NFC se puede hacer en IPhone y en la aplicación no hay opción para ello. Por lo demás está perfecto. ### 5/5 — So far so good! *2024-11-28, version 1.30* As a hobbyist artisan I sell at markets as well as custom orders. With this app I no longer miss out on sales because the customer doesn’t have enough cash on them. I am very happy with it and am confident to recommend it to others. ### 1/5 — Cheating App Beware *2024-02-29, version 1.27* This is a scam app. It does not have anything to do with PayNow or Stripe. Please do not fall into the trap. ### 5/5 — Giving easy options *2024-01-25, version 1.27* An awesome app feature that gives you additional pay options without the expenses of a machine. It cannot accept cards that don’t have a CCV and can be a little time consuming being a manual input, however a great alternative to receive payments. ### 5/5 — TieuTrungSai LLC *2023-12-15, version 1.27* Thanks for instantly faster!! ### 2/5 — Great in theory, unreliable in reality *2023-12-04, version 1.27* Have used this app for 4 markets now and it has got progressively unreliable with each. Unfortunately, it does not seem to accept all types cards from several of the major banks here in New Zealand. At my first market, there were one or two transactions that did not go through and then, yesterday, it did not accept any of the transactions I attempted. Thought the app wasn’t working so tested it out on my own card (different bank) and it worked fine. Too unreliable for me and currently looking at other options. ### 5/5 — Easy to use *2023-08-11, version 1.27* You can't really go wrong! ### 3/5 — Request *2023-04-15, version 1.27* Could Stripe please respond.
