The collaboration follows a goal to transform the way in which Europe-based customers choose how and where to pay on the go. As per the information detailed in the announcement, Tappy’s watch and jewellery brand partners are now enabled to provide Curve’s customers with Tappy-enabled payment wearables in 31 countries throughout the European Union and the UK.
Based on the press release details, when looking to transform their preferred wearables into ‘cutting-edge’ mobile payment carriers, all a user needs to do is download the Curve app (available in the Apple App Store, Google Play, and Huawei AppGallery), link their Curve digital wallet with their existing bank accounts, debit, or credit cards, and tokenise and provision it into the wearable through Tappy Pay in a simple manner.
Commenting on the announcement, Wayne Leung, CEO and Founder of Tappy advised that the company is ‘thrilled’ to launch its Wearable Token Services Platform in collaboration with Curve, which is available throughout Europe and the UK. As per their statement, the partnership is believed to help provide partner brands with significant benefits, enabling them to have their payment wearable offerings extended to a vast customer base throughout the region.
Adding on this, Shachar Bialick, CEO and Founder of Curve stated that the partnership with Tabby looks to provide UK- and EU-based customers with increased control over their existing cards by turning their wallets into wearable technology. The spokesperson advised that Curve has always had the aim of enabling convenience for customers, be it through a physical card, phone, smartphone, or any other type of wearable.
The collaboration with Tappy is believed to help bring Curve to worldwide on-the-go people that already leverage wearable technology on a daily basis, thus furthering its mission of simplifying and unifying the way in which its customers spend, budget, and earn rewards.
