Surfboard API

Use our functionality but with your setup

Everything we do is API-first. That means that you can get up and running in your current environment without any need to purchase new hardware in terms of screens and stands. You will need a newer touchscreen device running Android if you want to take advantage of the built in NFC chip and accept contactless payments out-of-the-box. If you wish to accept contactless on devices without any NFC chip or on any Apple device, or if you need to include chip on card present payments, you need to purchase one of our secure card readers for each terminal. We are working on a developer portal with documentation for the major programming languages soon.

Bundled and ready for small businesses and micro-merchants

Surfpay - Your mobile as a payment terminal

Surfpay is our app for small shops and micro-merchants, which without any extra hardware enables the merchants to receive card payments directly on their own mobile phone. Surfpay is based on the same Tap on Phone technology as our Surfboard Checkout, but unlike Surfboard Checkout not a white-label product.

The merchant undergoes a smooth onboarding directly in the app and can then enter the amount on the screen, choose payment method (in addition to cards, you can add invoice and other relevant payment methods), and then charge the customer. After completing the purchase, the merchant can send out the digital transaction slip via SMS, email or let the customer scan the QR code on the screen. Surfpay is PCI and EMV certified and contains PIN-on-screen which enables the merchant to charge without having to limit themselves to a certain amount.

The future is now

A big wave is coming and we are already out in the ocean getting ready to catch it. This is the biggest change in payment since the plastic card, and everyone from customers, via merchant to partners will benefit from it.
