RCBC Launches RCBC Pay: A New NFC Payment Solution for Mastercard Holders

RCBC introduces RCBC pay, another payment solution that allows RCBC Mastercard credit card holders to make secure, contactless payments using their NFC-compatible android smartphones. RCBC pay leverages advanced near field communication (NFC) technology, which allows credit card holders to pay by simply tapping their android smartphones and enjoy the benefits of their Mastercard, without needing to carry the physical card. This innovation is set to transform the payment experience by offering a fast, convenient, and secure method of transaction.

Powered by Mastercard, RCBC pay was developed and deployed by Thales, a global leader in payment technology and security. Arnel Vincent B.  Ong, president and CEO of RCBC credit cards relayed that, “RCBC Pay represents our commitment to embracing digital transformation and enhancing the convenience for our customers. By collaborating with Mastercard and Thales, we are able to provide a secure and efficient payment solution that meets the evolving needs of today’s consumers.”

Simon Calasanz, country manager at Mastercard Philippines, added, “Mastercard is proud to partner with RCBC in launching RCBC pay. This initiative is a testament to our shared vision of driving innovation in the payment landscape and providing card holders with greater choice to access and use their money in the form or device that makes their payment experience more seamless.”

Nassir Ghrous, VP for Banking & Payment Services in Asia, Middle East, and Africa at Thales commented, “Thales, is delighted to support RCBC and Mastercard in delivering RCBC Pay. Our advanced security technologies ensure that users can make contactless payments with confidence, knowing their transactions are protected by the highest standards of security.”

RCBC Pay is now available to all RCBC Mastercard card holders with NFC-enabled Android smartphones. To start using RCBC pay, card holders can download the RCBC Pulz App from google play, link their RCBC Mastercard credit card, and begin making contactless payments immediately. RCBC Pay can be used at over 92 million Mastercard-accepting merchants around the world.
