Business Owners Who Use the Autobooks Tap to Pay App

As a business owner utilizing the Tap to Pay App from Autobooks, you will notice a different presentation of the 'Payment Details' screen. In addition, you are offered the convenient feature of sending a receipt to your customer directly through a text message.

When completing a payment with Tap to Pay, you will now see a box with the payment details. Once the payment is accepted, the box will collapse, with an option to expand it by selecting 'See Details'. This expanded view will provide a full breakdown of the payment. If an email address or phone number is added for the receipt, it will also be displayed as a line item within the details.
