Upgrade Launches First Contactless and Mobile Payment Versions of Upgrade Card
Upgrade, Inc., a neobank that offers affordable and responsible credit to mainstream consumers, today launched its first contactless-enabled Upgrade Card. Also starting today, Upgrade Card is now available in digital form through both Apple Pay® and Google Pay™ to enable mobile payments. The World Health Organization (WHO) recommended last month that consumers limit the use of banknotes and, when possible, use contactless cards or smartphone payments to reduce the risk of coronavirus transmission.
“These new Upgrade Card features enable payments without any surface contact,” said Renaud Laplanche, Upgrade co-founder and CEO. “While more customers have been shopping online since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, many are still using their card in stores. We want to do what we can to keep our customers safe and give them a smarter way to pay.”
