Arab Finance: Visa has launched the Tap-to-Add Card in Egypt to promote the use of digital wallets, providing customers with a more secure and seamless payment experience, according to an emailed press release.

This solution will enable cardholders to add their Visa contactless cards to digital wallets with a simple tap on their mobile device.

In this regard, customers can skip the manual entry process, eliminating any source of errors and vulnerability exploited by scammers.

Tap to Add Card is created to benefit all stakeholders in the payment's ecosystem, as it provides an experience similar to in-store payments.

Cardholders will have access to a faster, more convenient, and more secure way to add cards to their digital wallets, encouraging greater adoption of digital payments.

As for issuers, this feature can help lower the risk and associated costs of provisioning fraud, simplifies the add-to-wallet process, and enhances transaction approval rates.

Malak El Baba, Egypt’s Country Manager and Vice President at Visa, stated: "We are always keen to introduce innovative and integrated solutions that meet the evolving needs of consumers and keep pace with the rapid global transformation in digital payments.”

“The 'Tap-to-Add Card' feature will boost customer confidence and encourage wider adoption of digital payments,” El Baba added.
