- Google Pay customers will be able to safely Pay with their Mastercard credit and debit cards while enjoying a hassle-free experience thanks to the launch of tokenization by Mastercard and Google. Mastercard cardholders can make payments using a secure digital token instead of sharing their credit or debit card data with a retailer, such as a card number, expiration date, and so on. This partnership represents a commitment to provide the best-in-class user experience and security features in an increasingly digital environment.
Thanks to this partnership, Google Pay Android users may now scan and pay at any Bharat QR-enabled retailers, tap-and-pay, and perform in-app purchases with their Mastercard debit and credit cards. Users will complete a one-time setup by inputting their card details and their OTP to add their card to the Google Pay app for convenience.
Payment credentials may be securely tokenized and stored in mobile devices (MDES) using the Mastercard Digital Enablement Service. Cardholders and merchants will have a similar experience to a typical card-based transaction when using Google Pay to make a purchase using a Mastercard debit or credit card, with extra security and convenience.
Because the cardholder’s information is stored as digital tokens, it is protected even if the cardholder’s mobile device is lost. The card issuer may update the pass, allowing the store to update lost, expired, or replacement cards automatically. Reducing the number of transactions denied due to expired card data improves success rates and streamlines the customer experience.
“At Google Pay, we endeavor to simplify payments and make it accessible to as many users as possible. “Offering the greatest levels of security for every transaction with the use of technology is one critical pillar in making this a reality,” said Sajith Sivanandan, Business Head, Google Pay, and NBU – APAC.
We’re thrilled to be working with Mastercard on card tokenization, which will provide users with advanced security for card payments. On Mastercard, this is already operational for multiple credit card issuers, and we’re working closely with additional financial partners to boost tokenization acceptance in India. We’re hoping that the enhanced simplicity and convenience will encourage a growing number of people to make more digital payments.”
“Mastercard consistently focuses on developing technology that delivers convenience and safety to cardholders, every time they pay,” said Nikhil Sahni, Division President, South Asia, and Country Corporate Officer, Mastercard. Mastercard has also been a pioneer in offering banks and cardholders a variety of payment methods, including Pay by App, Point of Sale terminals, Click to Pay, and more.
Tokenisation adds an extra layer of protection to payments, reducing friction and enhancing the purchasing experience. It will reshape the present payment ecosystem by providing a secure experience for consumers and easing the transition to a cashless society for millions of mobile-first users in distant regions. This effort is a natural extension of Mastercard’s long-standing partnership with Google, and it will help India’s digital economy flourish.”
