Setup Guide

Everything you need to go from unboxing to your first magical payment — in four simple steps.

No app required
No charging needed
Ready in seconds
01

Unbox Your Wand

  • Carefully remove your MyTapStick from its packaging.
  • Inside the box you will find your wand and a quick-start card.
  • Inspect the wand for any shipping damage — contact us at /contact if anything looks off.
  • No charging, no setup app, no pairing required. It is ready right out of the box.
02

Insert Your Credit Card

  • Hold the wand with the tip pointing away from you.
  • Slide your credit card into the slot — the card face should face outward.
  • Push gently until the card seats firmly and snugly.
  • The card should not wobble or fall out when you tilt the wand.
  • Only one card fits at a time — this is by design for security.
03

Find a Contactless Terminal

  • Look for the contactless payment symbol (four curved lines) on the terminal.
  • Most modern card readers at grocery stores, cafes, and retailers support NFC.
  • Apple Pay and Google Pay terminals work too — they use the same NFC technology.
  • If you are unsure, ask the cashier if they accept tap-to-pay.
04

Tap & Pay

  • Hold the wand tip 1–2 inches from the contactless reader.
  • Keep it steady for 1-2 seconds — you will hear a beep or see a green light.
  • That is it. Payment complete. You just paid like magic.
  • No PIN needed for most transactions under the contactless limit.
  • For larger amounts, the terminal may prompt for your PIN — enter it on the keypad as normal.

FAQ

Common Questions

Does my card need to be NFC-enabled?

Yes. Your card needs to support contactless payments (tap-to-pay). Most cards issued after 2019 do. Look for the contactless symbol on your card — four curved lines, like a WiFi symbol on its side.

Will my card fall out?

No. The wand is designed to hold your card snugly and securely. It won't fall out during normal use. If it feels loose, make sure it's fully seated.

Does it work with Apple Pay or Google Pay terminals?

Yes — any terminal that accepts Apple Pay, Google Pay, or contactless cards will work with MyTapStick. They all use the same NFC technology.

What if the payment does not go through?

Try holding the wand a little closer to the reader and keep it still for 1-2 seconds. If it still does not work, the terminal may not support contactless payments — try inserting your card directly.

Can I switch cards?

Absolutely. Simply slide your current card out and insert a different one. The wand holds one card at a time.

Is there a battery or app required?

None. MyTapStick is completely passive — it uses your card's built-in NFC chip. No charging, no app, no Bluetooth, no setup.
