Available for Apple and Android devices, the Worldpay iQ Now app enables business owners to monitor performance on the go from their mobile devices. Unlike other apps in the market, iQ Now integrates data from banks and third-party financial institutions to provide SMBs a holistic view of key performance metrics about their business, from sales and cash flow to refund and dispute activity.
“We built iQ Now from the ground up with the needs of SMBs in mind,” said Nicole Jass, Head of SMB Merchant Products, Worldpay Merchant Solutions, FIS. “As SMBs adjust to social distancing and stay-at-home measures, iQ Now gives critical insights and tools to business owners so they can spend less time on non-productive tasks and gain more control over their business operations in this critical time.”

iQ Now is designed to maximize ease-of-use and self-service, featuring simple biometric-based login, push notifications, and all-in-one functionality. At-a-glance graphs and reports provide merchants with real-time views of their business performance. Simple click-and-point functionality allows them to drill down on key metrics such as average sale size and store productivity.
Also unique to iQ Now are the app’s streamlined “tap-and-snap” workflows, which merchants can use to handle disputes and refunds on their own. Business owners can take photos of receipts and documentation with their device’s camera and submit within the app, removing the need to contact Worldpay’s dedicated disputes team.
