Costa customers soon to be able to use Apple Pay
The coffee chain will offer its customers the ability to pay with Apple Pay when it launches in the UK.
Jon Fisher, Head of Mobile and Loyalty at Costa commented “At Costa we always put the customer at the heart of everything we do. We currently provide contactless payment across the majority of our UK stores, which is proving really popular, so offering Apple Pay will make our customer experience even more seamless whilst maintaining privacy and security.”
To ensure security, when a customer adds a credit or debit card to Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the device, nor on Apple servers. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element on your device and each transaction is authorised with a one-time unique dynamic security code.
In stores, Apple Pay works with iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and Apple Watch.
