Trust & security

Your money and your customers’ data, protected

Tapp is built so the smallest business can take payments with confidence. Card details stay with our payment partner Adyen, every connection is encrypted and every business is verified before it gets paid — so you can focus on the counter, not the small print.

Core protections

What’s protected, and how

Every Tapp account comes with the same protections — there’s nothing extra to buy and nothing to switch on.
