The Paypers
Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB) has launched Samsung Wallet, a secure mobile payment service for debit, credit, and prepaid cardholders owning Samsung devices.
Samsung Wallet is a mobile payment platform that supports the shift towards digital wallets and provides a secure e-payments avenue around the world. Samsung Wallet works at any store in Qatar and abroad accepting contactless payments. Customers can also pay in their apps and online by simply Samsung Wallet at checkout without the need to enter the credit card details every time.
Enrolment to the Samsung wallet is instant and requires a few simple steps. Customers also need to turn on the NFC functionality on their phone or Samsung watch to enable contactless payments. They can add up to ten payment cards including credit, prepaid, and debit cards to their Samsung Wallet. As the full card number is not stored on the mobile device, paying with the Samsung Wallet is a secure mode of payment.
Samsung Wallet is the latest addition to the host of QIB’s mobile payment solutions and a step towards the evolution of payment options, contributing to Qatar’s efforts to achieve a cashless society, and offering customers more convenience when shopping or dining.
