This advanced technology allows to translate the payment card data, including its 16-digit number, into digital information known as ‘Token’. This occasion marks the culmination of the strategic relationship with Creditbank that we are always proud of, and which enables us to provide exceptional products and solutions to Visa cardholders. This new technology, characterized by the security and ease of use typical of Visa’s services, aims at expanding the Lebanese digital payment base by encouraging customers to use their mobile phones for point-of-sale (POS) payments of for all transactions even small ones, thereby contributing to financial inclusion.”
The launch of the Creditbank Pay app reaffirms once again that excellence and customer centricity are at the heart of Creditbank’s vision, along with the re-engineering of its branches, services and technological advances.
