3. Samsung Pay
With Samsung Pay, customers can use Galaxy devices, such as their smartphone or smartwatch, to shop with debit and credit cards virtually anywhere contactless payments are accepted.
Making the most of this contactless payments technology is as simple as adding cards to Samsung Wallet and tapping to pay.
Each transaction is covered by bank fraud protection and authenticated by either fingerprint or PIN number, while tokenisation adds extra layers of security. What’s more, Samsung Knox technology constantly monitors the user’s phone to keep information safe, encrypting card information in a separate, secure data vault at all times.
2. Google Pay
Formerly Google Wallet and Android Pay, Google Pay in its current form was born in 2018.
It’s a fast, easy way to pay on various websites, within apps and also in store using cards saved to the customer’s Google Account. Android users simply need to download Google Wallet in order to pay with their devices.
Shoppers hoping to use Google Pay when they checkout need only to look for the relevant icon, with no internet connection required for in-person transactions.
Google is vocal about its efforts to protect payment information using industry-leading security technologies, allowing customers to pay with peace of mind.
