Curve launches Google Pay integration

Curve has partnered with Google Pay so that its customers can now connect all their accounts and pay using their Android smartwatch as well as other devices from the likes of Acer, Huawei, HTC, Samsung, LG, Sony Ericsson and Motorola.

The new feature means that once you register your Curve card with Google Pay, the app will now work with all the banks and cards on the Mastercard or Visa networks. This is significant for Google Pay customers, as it enables support from banks like Barclays and Virgin, which have built near field communication (NFC) enabled payments into their own banking apps.

There are no capped £30 limits on transactions and customers can check out in hundreds of apps without having to repeatedly enter their payment information.

Diego Rivas, Curve’s head of product, commented: “By combining the Google Pay experience with Curve’s unique all your cards in one and money management features, Curve customers get to experience one of the most rewarding and feature packed personal finance products on the market.”

Earlier this week, Curve launched its first ever purely mobile offering by integrating with Samsung Pay, enabling Samsung users to pay with any card through its Pay app.
