KFH Egypt Enables Apple Pay for Secure and Convenient Digital Payments
Kuwait Finance House – Egypt (KFH Egypt) has announced the availability of Apple Pay for its customers, providing a faster, safer, and more private payment option. The service allows users to make payments without handing over their cards, touching physical buttons, or handling cash, while leveraging iPhone security features to protect each transaction.
Customers can complete contactless payments by simply holding their iPhone or Apple Watch near a payment terminal. Every transaction is verified using Face ID, Touch ID, or the device passcode, in addition to a dynamic, single-use security code. Apple Pay is accepted at supermarkets, pharmacies, taxis, restaurants, retail stores, and many other locations.
In addition, Apple Pay can be used on iPhone, iPad, or Mac for faster, more convenient in-app and online purchases via Safari, without repeatedly entering shipping or billing information. The service also supports payments for food delivery, online shopping, transportation, parking, and more, including in-app payments via Apple Watch.
Security and privacy are central to Apple Pay. Actual card numbers are not stored on devices or Apple servers. Instead, a unique device account number is encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element, a chip designed to meet the highest industry standards for payment data protection.
Setting up Apple Pay is straightforward. Customers can open the Wallet app on iPhone, tap the (+) icon, and follow the steps to add their KFH Egypt credit or debit cards. Once added, cards are immediately available on iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, and Mac, while retaining all associated benefits and rewards.
