Intuit QuickBooks today announced Tap to Pay on iPhone for QuickBooks Online customers in the United States, allowing small and mid-market businesses to accept in-person contactless payments without additional hardware.

The feature integrates with the QuickBooks mobile and GoPayment iOS apps, enabling businesses to receive payments using only an iPhone. Customers can accept contactless credit and debit cards, Apple Pay, and other digital wallets without requiring external devices. Transactions processed through the feature are automatically categorized and reconciled within QuickBooks Online.

By providing a direct, integrated payment solution, Tap to Pay on iPhone is intended to help small businesses receive payments faster, reducing delayed transactions and reliance on invoice processing. The feature also allows businesses to accept immediate payments on open invoices or generate new invoices at the point of sale.

Tap to Pay on iPhone is available exclusively to U.S.-based QuickBooks Online customers with an active QuickBooks Payments plan. The rollout begins today, with wider availability expected in the coming weeks.

Quickbooks is fine for small businesses.

Its biggest problem is that when small businesses become medium-sized businesses, they try to build a bunch of other crap around it instead of looking at proper SMB accounting/ERP systems. By the time they do start looking for a proper system, there is a mess of bailing wire and duct tape (not to mention really bad accounting habits) to untangle.

They now have subscription which sucks for a small business like mine . I run a mac obviously being here lol so they did away with the desktop software and the option for me is almost 95 a month or something close to that on subscription . It's ridiculous .

Yes. The shift to an expensive subscription model and the crippling of the desktop software is shameful. I hate Intuit with a passion.

I wholeheartedly disagree, it’s awful for every size business. They charge for every possible feature, their UX is terrible, their software often doesn’t make sense for both customers or accountants, they god rid of desktop, and they try to upsell you in every other screen to another service they offer. Intuit is overall just a terrible company.

I wish I could find an alternative. For now, I’ve blocked access to the internet and use it in a separate, older version of MacOS.
