Commercial Bank brings Google Pay to its customers – The Peninsula

Commercial Bank is delighted to announce the launch of Google Pay in Qatar, allowing customers to pay simply and securely with their Android phones and “Wear OS” devices (Tablets & Watches) online and in stores that support contactless payments.

Customers can simply add their supported Commercial Bank Credit or Debit Cards into the Google Pay App, then hold their phone or Wear OS device near a payment terminal to make a contactless payment in just a few seconds. Google Pay is accepted in grocery stores, pharmacies, taxis, restaurants, coffee shops, retail stores, and many more places.

Every Google Pay purchase is secure as it is authenticated with Face ID, Touch ID, or device passcode.

As a further security element, the actual card number is neither stored on the device nor in the system of the merchant, the transactions are made using a unique Device Account Number, called a token, hence keeping customer’s personal information private and secure.

Commenting on launching the new payment solution, Shahnawaz Rashid, EGM and Head of Retail Banking at Commercial Bank said: “With the launch of Google Pay, Commercial Bank continues to lead banking innovation and digitization in the region and reinforces its commitment in creating seamless payment experiences for
