iphone 12 unable to connect to Tap and Pay suddenly

Hi guys,

I checked my square app today in preparation for a market I am selling at tomorrow - and found that I can't do Tap and Pay charges all of a sudden. I have been using the square app on this phone for this purpose (selling items at markets) for more than a year successfully, and now it's busted? Really frustrated.

Basically I enter an amount and press charge, and it goes to the next screen where after a pause I get an error message saying "We encountered an error when connecting to Tap and Pay. Select the button below to try again".  Then after pressing the button I get a red error message saying: "We're unable to connect Tap to Pay. Please restart Square Point of Sale or your iPhone."

 

I will mention that I am on iOS 16.7.2 - I don't update my iOS because I got sick of apple disable my iphones over time. As I mentioned the square app has worked fine for the last year and I haven't changed anything. 

Can anyone offer any advice other than update iOS?

Thanks in advance.
🙂
