Global payments service provider SumUp is bringing Apple Pay to its UK merchant customers, strengthening its overall offering and enabling a ‘secure and private way to pay’.
A safer, more secure and private way to pay helps SumUp merchants avoid handing their payment card to someone else, touching physical buttons or exchanging cash.
Go deeper with GlobalData
SumUp merchant cardholders hold their iPhone or Apple Watch near a payment terminal to make a contactless payment. Every Apple Pay purchase is secure because it is authenticated with Face ID, Touch ID, or device passcode, as well as a one-time unique dynamic security code.
For faster and more convenient purchases
Cardholders can also use Apple Pay on iPhone, iPad, and Mac to make faster and more convenient purchases in apps or on the web in Safari without creating accounts or repeatedly type in shipping and billing information.
When merchants use a SumUp Card with Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the device nor Apple servers.
A unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted, and securely stored in the Secure Element, an industry-standard, certified chip designed to keep the payment information safely on the device.
