Tsb adding Android Pay support.

[viridis]

You asked for Android Pay™. So we’re launching it soon.

Hello, Good news. We’re launching Android Pay in the next few weeks because you told us you’d find it handy. Android Pay lets you make quick, easy and secure payments on the go. All you need to do is tap your phone. It’s that simple. To prepare for Android Pay, you need to log on and add your mobile number to your account in settings on tsb site.

Good... more progress.

DROID PAY.

Quick, easy payments

You can use Android Pay^TM with your Halifax debit or credit card. It’s the simple, secure way to make everyday payments with your Android phone using the latest contactless technology. It’s safe and secure because when you shop at a retailer, Android Pay doesn’t send your actual credit or debit card number with your payment. Instead we use a virtual account number to represent your account information – so your card details stay safe

My lad has a TSB account so will let him know.

I received this in May...

Dear Mr Brown, Android PayTM is now available to Lloyds Bank customers. It's a simple and secure way to use the latest contactless technology to make everyday payments with your Visa debit card or MasterCard® credit card. Device and card restrictions apply.*

Easy to use

Android Pay can be used on devices that are running Android 4.4 and above, have the Android Pay app installed and have contactless capability (NFC).

If you don't have the app installed, go to the Google Play Store and search for 'Android Pay'. If you can see the app, this means that your device is compatible.

Safe and secure

We know security is a priority. So your debit or credit card number isn't shared with the retailer. Instead we use a virtual account number to represent your account information — so your card details stay safe.
