JSC Bank of Georgia launches the Apple Pay service for its customers in Georgia

Bank of Georgia Group PLC (the “Group“) announces that JSC Bank of Georgia (the “Bank” or “Bank of Georgia”) today brings its customers Apple Pay, which is transforming mobile payments with an easy, secure and private way to pay. With Apple Pay on iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad and Mac, Bank of Georgia’s customers can make fast and convenient purchases in stores, in apps and on websites.

Security and privacy are at the core of Apple Pay. When you use a credit or debit card with Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the device, nor on Apple servers. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element on your device. Each transaction is authorised with a one-time unique dynamic security code.
