Quick answer
Who Crumb Coach Tap to Pay is for
Crumb Coach Tap to Pay is built for home bakers, cottage food businesses, farmers market vendors, farm stands, and other independent food sellers. It does more than process the tap: the sale stays connected to the product, customer, and order record so Crumb Coach can help with follow-up and what to do next.
How it works
Open Crumb Coach at your stand.
Have the customer tap their contactless card, phone, or watch to yours.
The sale is recorded automatically.
Nothing to enter later, nothing to double-check afterward. Earnings go to your connected bank account.
Why it's a transaction, not just a payment
The second that tap clears, it's tied to the product, the customer, and the sale record, and it's already feeding your Business Coach: what it cost you, what it's worth, what to do next.
Free to set up. You only pay once you make a sale.
