UOB Ties up With Visa’s New API to Simplify Digital Payments
United Overseas Bank (UOB) has teamed up with Visa to tap its new application programming interface (API), claiming to be the first bank in the world to do so. This partnership will enable customers to add their Visa credit and debit cards securely into popular apps using UOB Mighty, without the need for a physical card.
This means that customers no longer need to key in their 16 digit card number, expiry date and card security code manually or if they are a new customer, to wait for their credit and debit cards to be delivered to them before they can make purchases using their card.
