Travel Gadgets: Convenient Check-Outs

The innovative new MasterCard digital service, MasterPass, enables consumers to make convenient, fast and secure digital payments. Digital wallets accessible through the MasterPass acceptance network allow consumers to store all of their MasterCard or other branded credit, debit or cheque card information, as well as shipping and billing address details securely in one place. This gives them the ability to make secure online payments without the repeated hassle of entering these details each time. Standard Bank is the first local bank to offer a digital wallet powered by MasterPass via the Standard Bank MasterPass app. The app is available for free download from the Apple, Android or BlackBerry app stores.

Takealot.com, Flysaa.com and Plankton.mobi are among the first merchants to accept MasterPass as a payment method at checkout, with additional merchants going live soon. MasterPass is also available in nine other countries: the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Italy, Singapore, China, and Poland.
