The service removes the need to input long card numbers; customers can simply select the payment type and their bank during the checkout process, at which point they will be redirected to their own bank’s online banking page or mobile app, NatWest says.
The customer will then log in with Touch ID or their standard password before the process will complete automatically — cutting the times involved from minutes to just seconds. For customers they can check their balance before making a payment and therefore avoid any surprise transactions or overdraft fees, and they will be able to make payments sharing only a minimal amount of data.
The open banking technology will enable bank to bank transfers using faster payments delivering immediate settlement for merchants. The new technology will also remove the need for card carriers.
