Leading payment solutions company Dibsy has teamed up with QNB, the biggest bank in the Middle East and Africa, to introduce an improved Visa Click to Pay for Qatari shops. With this partnership, the Click to Pay solution with biometric verification is being used for the first time globally, establishing a new benchmark for safe, easy, and convenient online payments. At an award event held at QNB, which was attended by officials from QNB, Visa, and Dibsy, Visa acknowledged QNB and Dibsy for their innovative efforts.
Customers who have enabled their card will no longer need to provide a 16-digit main account number, search for passwords, or complete lengthy forms in order to make purchases on websites bearing the Click to Pay logo. Customers can pay with confidence knowing that Visa will use cutting-edge technology and authentication techniques, such as device binding, to secure transactions, when they see the Click to Pay emblem, which indicates that Visa is accepted.
By removing the need for passwords or one-time codes and enabling customers to verify utilising advanced authentication methods, VISA's improved Click to Pay service, which was introduced a few years ago, improves the checkout experience. Additionally, the Click to Pay with Visa experience is compatible with the EMVCo tokenisation specification, allowing both new and established digital payment channels to benefit from more modern security techniques.
Visa is committed to making it easy and safe for customers to purchase online. Over the last four years, e-commerce in the GCC area has grown by 300%. Over the same time period, e-commerce transactions on the Visa network grew 200% in some countries, such as Qatar.
