Emirates NBD, a leading banking group in the Middle East, North Africa and Türkiye (MENAT) region, has introduced the Visa Commercial Pay-Mobile Module for its SME and Corporate clients in UAE, in collaboration with Visa.
Emirates NBD is the first bank in the UAE to launch the Visa Commercial Pay-Mobile Module. This initiative aligns with the UAE Government’s vision of digitalizing payments while at the same time providing a distinctive and unique proposition to Emirates NBD’s clients to enhance payment efficiencies enabling security, automation and reconciliation through tokenized credentials.
Visa Commercial Pay Mobile is tailored for Corporates and SMEs providing an easy and secure way to manage expenses and enabling employees to make payments using Visa virtual cards on their mobile devices through digital wallets like Apple Pay or Google Pay.
The solution extends the current Virtual Card capability of deploying tokenized virtual credentials providing enhanced security, real-time controls and expense management to the digital wallets, enabling the use of Virtual Cards to make POS machine (card present) payments.
