Consumers to Benefit from Increased Security and Convenience When Using Their MasterPass-Enabled Bank-Issued Wallets
PURCHASE, N.Y. – October 19, 2015 – MasterPass has increasingly been making shopping easier and safer for consumers and merchants in 24 countries around the globe. Today, MasterCard announced it will integrate a fully tokenized checkout experience within MasterPass, leveraging the MasterCard Digital Enablement Service (MDES). This gives consumers the freedom to shop more securely online or in-app from any connected device. A demonstration of a tokenized MasterPass wallet will be available next week at the Money 20/20 Conference in Las Vegas. 
MasterPass enables issuers to deliver digital payments across channels and devices around the world, seamlessly extending the trusted relationships consumers have with their banks. It securely stores shoppers’ preferred payment and shipping information, which makes checkout just a few clicks away, with no long strings of numbers or details to enter. The “Buy with MasterPass” button is currently found within the website and apps of more than 250,000 merchants globally across travel, entertainment, quick service restaurants, retail and more.
