S-group and S-bank customers can now use their Apple devices to pay and collect bonuses, thanks to the expansion of Apple’s mobile payment service, Apple Pay. In a press release from S group on Tuesday, it was announced that customers can add their S-etukortti Visa payment card to Apple Pay. Additionally, S group customer owners can add their bonus-accumulating advantage card to Apple’s Wallet application.
Paying with a digital S-bank card is simple – users can press the lock button twice on their iPhone and hold the device close to the cash register payment terminal. Transactions can also be completed using Apple’s smart watch, with authentication through fingerprint recognition, face recognition, or the device’s code number.
To add the S benefit card to Apple’s Wallet, users can do so through the S-mobile application. They must go to the “Me” section and select “Add to Apple Wallet”. It is important to ensure that the latest version of the S-mobile application (2.27.0) is being used. Card connection is also possible through the Wallet application by clicking the + button and following the on-screen instructions.
S group’s customers have a total of four million S advantage cards in use, with a majority being S-bank’s international payment cards. The S advantage card can also be connected to the Google Pay payment application on Android phones. With this new feature, customers have even more flexibility in how they make payments and manage their bonuses.
