We know your counter.

  • Big-ticket and high-volume weekends that trigger holds

    A good Saturday shouldn't look like fraud to your processor.

  • Keg deposits and refunds that don't reconcile

    Deposits go out, kegs come back, and the numbers never quite match.

  • Processors that reprice you once you're signed

    The rate you were quoted lasts until the first statement.

Built for a busy weekend.

  • Two lanes busy on a weekend

    Integrated with your POS so totals never get re-keyed

    The sale total goes straight from your POS to the terminal, so nothing gets typed twice.

  • Keg cooler with a deposit tag

    Keg deposit and refund workflow

    Take keg deposits and refund them cleanly when the keg comes back.

  • Two lanes busy on a weekend

    Multiple lanes and terminals on one account

  • Handheld at a tasting table

    Contactless for a line out the door

FAQ

How fast can I be approved?

Most complete applications get a decision within 24 hours (business days). A real underwriter reviews your file, and if anything is missing, we'll tell you exactly what we need.

What documents do I need?

Usually a voided check or bank letter, a government-issued ID for each owner, and your recent processing statements if you have them. Specialty businesses may need a few more, like licenses or a product list.

Can Rapid Tap handle age-restricted sales?

Rapid Tap processes the payment; checking ID stays with your staff and your POS. If your POS prompts for ID at checkout, that works the same with Rapid Tap.

Will you hold my funds?

We don't hold funds by default. If your business needs a reserve, we'll tell you before you sign, in writing, with how much and for how long.

Can I keep my current POS?

In most cases, yes. Tell us which POS you use, and we'll confirm how Rapid Tap works with it before you sign.

Is there a contract?

No long-term contract. Service is month-to-month, and you can leave without an early termination fee.
