Payments via Apple Pay Now Available

Chargify is making it easier than ever for your customers to pay you, with Apple Pay. The simplicity of this new payment method will allow customers to complete their purchase without entering a single piece of information. This is incredibly important for the card holder and also for you as it reduces the friction at the checkout for new and existing customers.  

In addition to added simplicity, Apple Pay reduces chargebacks due to fraud and costly fees. Apple Pay uses a tokenized ID specific to your customer’s supported device to authorize secure transactions for your products. 

To have Apple Pay turned on for your Chargify account simply contact your Customer Success Manager or Chargify Support.
