What payment methods can my customers use to pay a Xero Invoice?
Rvvup uniquely offers Pay by Bank, Pay by Card, and Apple Pay as payment method options for Xero Invoicing.

I’m testing out the Rvvup + Xero Invoicing checkout flow but I don’t see Apple Pay. How come?
Two possibilities: 1️⃣ You may need to complete the Rvvup + Apple Pay setup to enable Apple Pay as a payment option. Or 2️⃣, you may not be using the right browser as Apple only shows Apple Pay as an option on the Safari browser.
