QuickBooks GoPayment
What it is
QuickBooks GoPayment is a mobile point-of-sale app for taking payments on the go, available for Android and iOS. Merchants can accept cards with a Bluetooth reader, take cash or checks, and accept digital wallets such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Samsung Pay. Card details can also be entered manually. Tap to Pay on iPhone accepts contactless payments without a reader, but requires an iPhone XS or later with the latest iOS version. The app can create sales, collect payment for existing invoices, accept advance customer payments, and send receipts by email or text. The green app syncs sales and invoice payments with QuickBooks Online. The blue app connects to standalone QuickBooks Payments or QuickBooks Desktop, but does not automatically sync payment details with QuickBooks products. The app is free, but requires a QuickBooks Payments account subject to eligibility criteria, credit, and application approval. Payment processing fees and message and data rates may apply. Intuit lists its card reader for $49, and says readers or Tap to Pay may require a PCI self-assessment form different from the simplest form used for invoice-only and payment-link payments.
