FinTech Alliance company Curve is powering Samsung Pay’s new card in the UK.
In Brief:
-
Samsung Pay has launched a Mastercard debit card to be used alongside its app.
-
Curve allows existing bank cards to be consolidated into one card and digital wallet.
-
Samsung Pay Card users will be able to access Curve features such as peer to peer payments and spending records.
What does this mean?
The Curve card will mean Samsung Pay customers will be able to use the app more widely. Currently Samsung Pay doesn’t have partnerships with all UK banks and as such many cards cannot be added to it – so the Curve deal will allow users to add more options to Samsung Pay and use it more widely.
