Add Cash App Pay at Checkout

Cash App Pay is a fast and simple payment method that lets customers pay for purchases either by scanning a simple QR code or by tapping Cash App Pay at checkout to be redirected to Cash App.

You can use your existing Cash App Afterpay integration to enable this feature, and it works on Desktop, Mobile, and in a native app.
