Wallet Loyalty Setup Guide
What is Wallet Loyalty?
Wallet Loyalty is a feature offered by Apple that allows a store to provide customers with a one-tap experience. With a single tap of their phone, customers may pay for purchases and redeem/accrue loyalty points/offers.
Note: Once the Payment Device button is selected and the customer taps their phone for payment, the payment type cannot be changed. If the customer would like to change the method of payment, the cashier must delete the payment entirely and proceed with a new payment method.
