Now more than ever, consumers are using their mobile devices to send and receive payments, with a projected $700+ billion in yearly global transactions by 2017. As mobile payment continues to increase rapidly in the U.S. and worldwide, Visa is helping redefine the consumer experience with new and secure digital payment technologies.

Visa and Android Pay help protect every transaction against fraud. Visa Token Service replaces the customer’s card details with a unique virtual account number. That way, sensitive information stays private.
Shoppers can pay their own way—both in person and on Android apps—with nearly any Android device. So, whether at the store or on the couch, customers can make purchases quickly and securely.
Android Pay is only compatible on Android devices that are NFC and HCE-enabled and run KitKat 4.4 or later.
Create a seamless, secure payment experience for your customers. Get started by enrolling in Visa Token Service to support Android Pay for your Visa products.
Your credit and debit card information are assigned a unique virtual account number that’s used at checkout, so your full card details are not shared with your payment. Think of it as a digital stand-in for your payment information.
By creating a unique virtual account number for card payment information, the cardholder’s name and full card details are never shown in the app and never shared with the store. Google stores the user’s payment information on secure servers and encrypts it with industry-standard SSL (secure socket layer) technology. If their phone is ever lost or stolen, they can easily find, lock and erase their device using Android Device Manager.
In order to use Android Pay, we require that you set up a secure Android device lock which can be a pin, password, or pattern.
