Start selling

Before you take your first payment, make sure your device is ready:

  1. Go to Settings on your phone and turn on NFC.

  2. Open the JIM app.

  3. Use the keypad to enter the payment amount ($1 minimum).

  4. Pick how you want to get paid:

    • Tap to Pay — Have your customer tap their card, phone, or smartwatch on your device. Fee: 1.99% per sale.

    • Payment Link — Send a secure link by text, email, or any messaging app. Fee: 4.99% + $0.30 per transaction.

Either way, funds show up in your JIM account instantly.


Manage your money

You've got two ways to access your JIM balance:

  • JIM Card — Instant and free. It's a virtual Visa Prepaid Card that gives you immediate access to your sales balance. Add it to Apple Wallet and use it anywhere Apple Pay is accepted. No transfer fees, ever.

  • ACH Transfer — Send funds straight to your U.S. bank account. Fee: 1.99% + $0.99 per transfer. $15 minimum. Funds arrive the same business day.
