Commenting on the addition, CIBC payments innovation and integration vice-president Brenda Clark said, "We are excited to expand our CIBC Mobile Payment App to the BlackBerry Z10 and Q10 smartphones on the Rogers network, bringing this new payment experience to even more of our clients."

Using a BlackBerry Bold 9900 smartphone on the Rogers wireless network, CIBC completed a mobile credit card transaction using the secure SIM card inside an NFC enabled smartphone in November 2012. Subsequently it became the first bank in Canada to achieve this capability.
The CIBC Mobile Payment App, which is also available on the Android OS through the Samsung Galaxy S3, will add additional mobile devices in the coming weeks.
Leveraging the app and a CIBC credit card, customers can access mobile payments at some of the most popular retailers throughout Canada.
The app is available to be downloaded now from the BlackBerry World storefront for clients using BlackBerry Z10 and BlackBerry Q10 smartphones on Rogers.
