Do I need Venmo, Cash App, or Zelle to use Valetfy?

No. Neither you nor your customer needs a peer-to-peer app. Share a customer-facing browser terminal by link or QR code, then the customer reviews and approves payment with a supported card or wallet. Nothing to download and no Valetfy customer sign-up.

Can a customer without Cash App still pay me?

Yes. A customer does not need Cash App, Venmo, or Zelle to use Valetfy. They open your browser terminal from a shared link or QR code and approve a supported card or wallet payment powered by Stripe.

How is Valetfy different from Zelle?

Zelle routes payments through participating financial institutions and requires eligible enrollment. Valetfy provides customer-facing browser terminals: the customer reviews and approves payment with a supported card or wallet, powered by Stripe.

Are Valetfy browser terminal payments safe?

Yes. Every payment runs on Stripe. Card details go straight to Stripe — you never see or store them, and neither does Valetfy. A QR code is simply one way to open a browser terminal.

Comparison

Valetfy vs. Venmo, Cash App & Zelle

Valetfy is a business alternative to requiring every customer to use the same payment app. Create a customer-facing Charge, Store, or Tip Terminal and share it by link or QR code. Your customer reviews a browser checkout and approves payment with a supported card or wallet. No Valetfy app or customer account, no card reader, powered by Stripe.

How Valetfy differs from each payment app

Valetfy vs. Venmo

Venmo offers business profiles and QR payments, but direct Venmo payment is built around the customer's Venmo account and app. Valetfy opens a customer-facing browser terminal that accepts supported cards and wallets without requiring a Valetfy account.

Valetfy vs. Cash App

Cash App offers business payment services, but a payment within Cash App still depends on that payment network. Valetfy gives the customer a browser terminal, so they can review and approve a supported card or wallet payment without joining Valetfy.

Valetfy vs. Zelle

Zelle is a bank-account payment service, and small-business availability depends on whether the operator's financial institution supports the business account type. Valetfy instead presents a customer-facing browser terminal powered by Stripe.

Why Valetfy is different

You're not asking anyone to join a network. You're opening a customer-facing browser terminal that accepts supported methods they already use — such as Apple Pay, Google Pay, and major cards — all powered by Stripe. The customer still sees the amount and approves the payment.
