Rowie in your pocket

Just your phone and a free Rowie account. There's no hardware to buy, no reader to pair, and nothing to charge overnight. Sign up, set up your menu, and start accepting payments in minutes.

The free Starter tier charges 1.9% + €0.22 per tap. Upgrade to Pro at €29.99/mo and that drops to 1.6% + €0.20. No surprise charges, no lock-in. Keyed-in card numbers carry a slightly higher rate because of added fraud screening. If you process high volume, contact us about custom pricing or manual entry rates.

Stripe handles all the settlement behind the scenes. Daily deposits are available by default, and you can opt into instant payouts for a small fee. Either way, funds land straight in your bank account.

On the Apple side, any iPhone XS or newer running iOS 16.4+. For Android, any handset with NFC on Android 8.0 (Oreo) or later. That covers basically any phone from the last six years.

Yes. Build a separate menu for every venue, market, or event, each with its own products and prices. Swap between them with a single tap in the app. Pro subscribers get unlimited menus, which is ideal if you work multiple locations.

Enable it on any menu and Rowie generates a QR code. Customers scan it, browse your products, and place an order. With optional online payment. You get a real-time notification and manage everything from the vendor dashboard.

Absolutely. Create an event, set up ticket tiers with different prices, and share the link. Customers buy online, get a QR code ticket, and you scan them at the door with your phone. Apple Wallet and Google Wallet passes are included.

Every tip is tracked per sale and per team member. Revenue splits automatically divide payments between partners, venues, and staff so nobody has to do the math afterward.

None. Everything is month-to-month. You can downgrade back to the free Starter tier whenever you want, right from your account settings. No cancellation fees, no lock-in.

Yes. Rowie never touches card numbers. All payment data is handled entirely by Stripe, which is PCI Level 1 certified. Your customers' information never passes through our servers.

Typed card numbers carry more fraud risk than a physical tap, so payment networks charge a premium. On Starter that works out to 2% + €0.27 per transaction; on Pro it's 1.7% + €0.25. The same rates apply to online sales like ticket purchases and menu orders. Tap to Pay is always the cheapest way to accept a card.

Create a booking page, add your services with durations and prices, and share the link. Customers pick a date, choose a time slot, and book. With optional online payment. You get confirmation emails, reminders are sent automatically, and you manage everything from the vendor dashboard. Available on both Starter and Pro.

Yes. Pro subscribers can create recurring membership plans (weekly, monthly, or yearly). Set up your plans, share your subscription page, and customers sign up with automatic billing through Stripe. You can track subscribers, revenue, and churn from your dashboard.

Pro subscribers get Team Pay, a built-in tool for calculating what each team member is owed. Log hours, set hourly rates, pool and distribute tips, and Rowie does the math (including overtime). When you approve a pay run, Rowie generates a CSV report you can hand to your bank, payroll provider, or accountant. Rowie does not move money to your staff and does not store their bank details. You pay your team externally using the method that suits you. Team Pay is a calculation and reporting tool, not full payroll. You remain responsible for your own tax and employment obligations.
