Wirecard has launched boon with Apple Pay in Spain, as a result customers can now benefit from boon by Wirecard with Apple Pay in six European countries, including United Kingdom, France, Switzerland, Ireland and Italy.
Boon is based on an automatic app-to-wallet integration via a prepaid account with a digital Mastercard, issued by Wirecard Card Solutions. This allows users to top-up their account via wire transfer, debit or credit card. Boon with Apple Pay works at any NFC-enabled terminal everywhere the Mastercard Contactless logo appears.
The app has an intuitive user interface and fresh design that represents the modern, individual lifestyle.
Security and privacy is at the core of Apple Pay. When you use a credit or debit card with Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the device, nor on Apple servers. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element on your device. Each transaction is authorized with a one-time unique dynamic security code.
Apple Pay is easy to set up and users will continue to receive all of the rewards and benefits offered by credit and debit cards. In stores, Apple Pay works with iPhone SE, iPhone 6 and later, and Apple Watch.
