In their own words
Lopay
Lopay provides businesses with tools to accept in-person payments, collect money through payment links, and use point-of-sale features. Its listed payment methods include chip and PIN, contactless and wallet payments, NFC and wearables, Tap to Pay, subscriptions, donations, QR codes, invoicing, and refunds. The point-of-sale feature lets merchants organize products, manage stock, and check out on a smartphone or tablet. Payment links can collect deposits or payment for remote services, as one-time or recurring charges. Lopay documents integrations with Xero and QuickBooks, and its payment page describes adding payment links to Intuit invoices. A Lopay account can connect to one Xero organization; daily syncing requires a supported Xero plan and excludes Ignite and lower or free plans. Tap to Pay requires an iPhone XS or later running iOS 16.4 or later, or Android 10 or later with NFC enabled. Lopay lists in-app, email, and phone support, guided onboarding, and more than 60 help articles. Its three listed plans have no monthly fee.
