Sumup - Tap To Pay

[Dr. Martin Gooter Bling]

that's bleedin rapid that is.
can't wait to take a payment with it.
i feckin hate when at the end they wanna tap and you havta fire up the machine and it might take it's time.
has anybody found out a way to stop sumup trying to add 23% to every payment. i stick it to No Vat and press save but the cuntin thing reverts back to 23% all the time.

My Xiaomi android doesnt seem to get a great signal on the tap to pay.To make it work you have to press the card against the back of the phone in a very exact position for about 15 seconds to get it to read.For now I'll stick with the sumuo reader.Still a good feature to have though.

What phone did u get

Apologies, only saw this now. As per OP it's a TCL 40 SE from Tesco, Clubcard Price €129.xx... possibly available very slightly cheaper on Amazon but I concluded the difference was too small to justify the wait.

I've only used the tap to pay once to test it with my own card and once with Mrs. Catcher's card. On my phone you need to tap the rear camera with the card. However, I find the card reader more convenient in the car so it's only really a backup facility in my case... at least until I break or lose the card reader.

You can remove the VAT by logging in to your Sumup account through a www browser. I can't remember the exact procedure but it's straightforward enough, IIRC someone mentioned it on here before. You can also update the receipt details to remove your address if you wish.

The app might tell you why. If you tap Home followed by the person icon in the top right corner and then select SumUP Tap from the list it should produce a checklist highlighting what's missing. Mine has all required items present and correct as follows:

... or it might just need to be switched on?

Fair play it worked
Goto settings switch tap to pay
Tap back of fone

I set my VAT rate to zero last year back when it was first mentioned on here and it is still at zero today.
I have an iphone 7.

[Dr. Martin Gooter Bling]

yes i finally figured it out thanks to rat catcher.
go to sumup website, sign into account, settings, switch taxes off.
