Disadvantages

❎ Device requirement: An NFC-enabled smartphone is necessary, so older or incompatible phones cannot be used.

❎ Onboarding delay: Account approval can take 12–48 hours, so you may not be able to accept payments immediately after registration.

❎ PIN entry on device: For transactions that require a PIN, customers must enter it on the merchant’s phone rather than a dedicated PIN pad, which may not suit all situations.
