Wirecard makes Google Pay available to Italy-based Android users

Thursday 20 September 2018 14:30 CET | News

Wirecard has announced its mobile payment solution boon is now available to download in the Google Play store for the launch of Google Pay in Italy.

Fully digital and contactless payments with Google Pay are facilitated by the boon Android app, thus Italian users will be able to utilise the fully digitalised prepaid card for mobile payments, regardless of which bank they are with.

Users can top up their boon account by using any Mastercard or Visa and via bank transfer. As a result, it is not necessary to already own a credit card from a bank supported by Google Pay. Furthermore, the service provides free, real-time money transfers between users.

boon is already available on Android devices in Germany, Belgium, Ireland, the Netherlands, Austria, and Spain. The app runs on both the Android operating system and iOS, where it is already available in the UK, France, Italy, Ireland, Switzerland, and Spain.
