Registration & set up: The app can be downloaded from Google Pay and App Store. Users have to enter their TESCO credentials in order to use their Clubcard account. This links Tesco Clubcard to PayQwiq, allowing the automated collection of Clubcard points. Users add a payment card to the app (it works Visa, Visa Debit, Visa Electron, MasterCard, MasterCard Debit, Maestro and American Express).

Making a payment: Users open the app and it generates a barcode that users have to scan to complete the transaction. Authenticate with PIN.[/otw_shortcode_content_toggle]

Merchant perspective: (Update to follow – Further information being obtained)
Security: All card data is secured in Tesco’s encrypted data centres – never on users’ phones. The app is protected by a 4-digit PIN created by the user.
