Every month, more and more clients of Grupo Caja Rural entities are using this mobile payment service to make their payments easily, quickly and conveniently. In this article, we are going to explain how you can save time by registering all your bank cards in Apple Pay.
Apple Pay, the preferred service for customers
Over the past year, the number of cards enrolled in Apple part time data Pay has grown exponentially. As of October 1, 2020, more than 140,000 cards have been added , representing a year-over-year increase of 43%. In addition, 5% of new cards are enrolled in Apple Pay every month.
In terms of transactions, we find that between January and September 2020, more than 190 million euros have been recorded in mobile payments, and 79% of these payments have been made by customers using Apple Pay.
The difference between months is clear: in September and August of this year, almost 300,000 more transactions were made with Apple Pay than in the same period in 2019.

Customers appreciate the speed of Apple Pay, a system that they can take with them everywhere and that does not entail any additional costs for their pockets. The security of their data is guaranteed through the biometric systems of the device itself , which only allow the payment to be completed when the identity of its owner is confirmed.
