FAQ
It’s ok to have questions
Do my users need to go through a new KYC process?
No. Tap to Pay uses KYC reliance — your users activate in-person payments using their existing Swan account, with no additional verification or onboarding required.
What cards and wallets are supported?
All major contactless cards (Visa, Mastercard) and digital wallets including Apple Pay and Google Pay are accepted.
How quickly do my users receive their funds?
Payments settle directly into their Swan account on D+1 (next business day).
What does integration look like on my side?
Swan provides dedicated iOS SDKs that plug directly into your existing mobile application. Integration is designed for minimal engineering effort, with consistent APIs, clear documentation, and dedicated support from the Swan team.
Is there a risk of fraud? How is it managed?
Tap to Pay is powered by Stripe's certified, compliant infrastructure — including fraud detection and risk management built in. Combined with KYC reliance and near-instant onboarding, the risk profile for card payments stays low.
Is Tap to Pay available on iPhone too?
Yes — Swan provides SDKs for both iOS and Android. (This page covers the Android version. See the iPhone version here.)
