EasyJet one of first airlines to launch Apple Pay on Web
EasyJet has launched Apple Pay for bookings made on its website after making the two-step payment facility available to customers using its mobile app.
Customers booking flights on iPads or Macs will see a ‘Buy with Apple Pay’ button on the check-out screen and will be able to select the card they want to use and authorize a secure payment via Touch ID fingerprint recognition.
For customers using an Apple Mac, the booking will be transferred to their iPhone where they will use Touch ID, or to their Apple Watch to authorise payment
Head of digital James Millett said:"We’re delighted that from today we’re one of the first airlines in the world to introduce Apple Pay on Web for~easyJet.com.
"We’re all about innovating to make it easier for customers and we’re proud to be leading the way in the future of payments."
