Merchants using Wix can process payments by converting their Android devices into Point-of-Sale terminals to accept secure, contactless payments anywhere in the U.S.

Wix.com Ltd., a leading global SaaS platform to create, manage and grow an online presence, today announced Tap to Pay on Android to simplify in-person commerce for U.S.-based merchants through an extended partnership with Stripe. Following Wix’s recent release of Tap to Pay on iPhone, Wix merchants can now accept secure, contactless payments directly from their Android devices without additional hardware.

The Wix Owner App turns any compatible Android device into a Point-of-Sale (POS) terminal. By leveraging Wix’s advanced and secure POS software, merchants are able to conduct in-person commerce anywhere, anytime, giving their customers a  simple, contactless checkout experience. Users can use credit cards, debit cards, Google Pay, and other digital wallets to complete the purchases of their desired products with confidence and ease.
