London banking platform partners with Google Pay for better user experience

Banking platform Curve has teamed up with Google Pay to better serve its UK customers.

Curve customers in the UK can now pay with their Android smart watch as well as other devices from the likes of Google, Acer, Huawei, HTC and Samsung.

The new feature is enabled by Curve’s ability to consolidate all of a customer’s bank cards into one single Curve card, meaning the Google Pay app will now work with all global banks and cards on the Mastercard or Visa networks.

Google Pay also adds an additional layer of security to Curve’s advanced security stack by protecting payment information with multiple layers of security, making it even safer to send money, store tickets, or cash in on rewards.

Diego Rivas, Curve’s head of product, said: “We are delighted to announce Curve’s integration with Google Pay.

“Curve is still an excellent way of consolidating all your cards in one and its integration with Google Pay enables even more ways to pay if you don’t have your physical card handy.

“By combining the Google Pay experience with Curve’s unique all your cards in one and money management features, Curve customers get to experience one of the most rewarding and feature packed personal finance products on the market.”

Earlier this week, Curve launched its first ever purely mobile offering by integrating with Samsung Pay, enabling Samsung users to pay with any card through its Pay app.

Following the announcement of Samsung Pay, Curve is planning to expand into the US in 2020. In September, Curve became the fastest startup in history to raise £4m in crowdfunding.
