Today’s consumers are used to digital and mobile experiences in their everyday lives and want seamless and digital services. Acceptance of digital payment is today a key selection criteria for customers. Banks need to offer their customers an instant and mobile-first banking experience. “Digital cards address this change in consumer behavior and enable instant card issuing on the consumer’s mobile device.” says Timothée Grüner, at Entrust (formerly Antelop Payments).

As a leading digital wallet, Apple Pay enables users to instantly get and digitize their cards in-app and perform face-to-face and online payments. iOS users now expect the service to be offered by their bank.

Banks that want to offer Apple Pay to their clients, also have to implement the mandatory in-app Apple Pay Push Provisioning of the card, directly from their banking app.

The Apple Pay Push is complex and expensive for banks to implement. A deep Visa / Mastercard tokenization expertise is required. This includes complex encryption and key management, specific mobile developments, overtime maintenance, …  It also requires a certification by Apple to obtain.

The complexity is increasing with the number of schemes and use cases.

In general, processors do not offer a simplified implementation for Apple Pay Push including the mobile part.

That is why banks turn towards tokenization experts to get support with the implementation of Apple Push into their banking applications.

A UNIFIED AND SIMPLIFIED INTEGRATION OF PUSH PROVISIONING

Thanks to our unified PCI-DSS service (Apple Pay certified), the project and integration are simplified. The bank just needs to integrate our secure SDK with our support and follow the 3 following steps:

  • Initialize SDK: mobile app calls the SDK and shares a ClientID

  • Device binding: mobile app pushes an encrypted PAN or a CardID to be bound to that SDK

  • Push card: mobile app calls the SDK for pushing the card into any use case

Additionally to Apple Pay Push, we also provide token management functionalities, especially  token view and control.
