Visa has introduced Tap to Add Card in Kazakhstan for quick and secure addition of cards to digital wallets

Visa announced the launch of Tap to Add Card in Kazakhstan, marking an important step in the development and integration of digital wallets. This innovative technology allows holders of contactless Visa cards to add them to digital wallets with just a single tap of their mobile device.

By providing enhanced security and convenience, Tap to Add Card eliminates the need for manual data entry, which often leads to errors and creates vulnerabilities that fraudsters can exploit to compromise sensitive card information. Upon tapping, a unique one-time code is generated, which is verified through Visa’s Chip Authenticate service. This ensures secure card addition and makes the process significantly faster and more reliable compared to traditional methods.

The Tap to Add Card feature, introduced by Visa in September last year as part of a suite of new services to enhance digital payments, has quickly gained popularity worldwide. In Kazakhstan, 9,506 Tap to Add Card tokens have already been activated, demonstrating the convenience and security of the technology when adding cards to digital wallets.

Tap to Add Card is designed for the convenience of all participants in the payment ecosystem. By providing a process similar to in-store payments, the technology allows cardholders to add cards to digital wallets faster, more conveniently, and more securely, further promoting the adoption of digital payments.

For digital wallets, Tap to Add Card meets Visa’s security standards, reduces the risk of card compromise, and increases the likelihood of successful token creation by minimizing data entry errors. Additionally, the technology opens up new opportunities to improve the user experience. Tap to Add Card is supported by digital wallets worldwide, ensuring seamless integration into the existing digital payments ecosystem.
