Novatti announces Visa Prepaid cards now supported by Apple Pay
By Edil Corneille
Novatti, a digital banking and payments company, announced that its Visa Prepaid cards are now supported by Apple Pay. This will enable Novatti’s clients to use Apple’s global payments platform, Apple Pay, to make purchases in store, in apps, and online using their Apple device, with their payment card stored conveniently and securely in Apple’s Wallet.
Novatti offers physical and digital Visa Prepaid cards in Australia after being awarded a Principal Issuer Licence by Visa in September 2019. The extension of the company’s Visa Prepaid cards to Apple Pay follows extensive testing and integration work having been completed, providing another validation of the quality of the offering. The company joins the major Australian banks, including ANZ, Commonwealth Bank of Australia, NAB, and Westpac, in being supported by Apple Pay.
Managing Director of Novatti, Peter Cook, said: “By partnering with Apple Pay, Novatti is providing its clients with even greater flexibility and coverage in their choice of mobile device, and therefore, the opportunity for Novatti’s platforms to scale further.
“By increasing the reach of Novatti’s Visa Prepaid cards, we aim to further scale our card issuing and transactions.”
Recently this month, Novatti announced that it has been licenced by Visa to issue cards in New Zealand. This partnership has already seen Novatti launch multiple new, financial technology and financial products to market through an affordable, API driven, Visa card program.
The Melbourne-based company’s FinTech, billing, and business automation platforms make payments fast, simple, and secure. Payments services include card issuing, merchant acquiring, payment processing and settlements. These enable customers to thrive as the company shifts to a cashless economy.
