Using Google Pay also makes payments safer with multiple layers of security, adding to the protections already provided by your PhotonPay Mastercard Commercial Credit Card. This includes industry-standard tokenization, which means transactions made through Google Pay use a virtual card number (a token) instead of the actual card number. This token is device-specific and paired with a dynamic security code that changes with each transaction, adding an extra layer of protection against fraud.

Powered by Near Field Communication (NFC), tap-to-pay transactions enable secure, short-range wireless data exchange, ensuring fast and reliable payments for PhotonPay users. Additionally, Google Wallet's privacy settings give users full control over their data, and the "Find My Device" feature ensures card and data security by allowing users to lock devices, reset passwords, or erase personal information remotely.

Chao Xu, Vice President of Products at PhotonPay, said, " We're thrilled to annouce PhotonPay's integration with Google Pay. PhotonPay is still a powerful platform to manage all your cards in on and its integration with Google Pay enbles even more ways to pay in stores, online, and in-apps. With Google Pay and PhotonPay's all-in-one card and customized tools, customers get to experience a simpler, rewarding way to manage their finances."
