Setting Up Sharesies Spend with Digital Wallets
The Sharesies Spend card is fully compatible with popular digital wallet services, Apple Pay and Google Pay, for users in New Zealand. This means you can make quick and secure payments using your smartphone or smartwatch without needing your physical card.
Here's how to generally set them up:
- For Apple Pay:
- Open the Wallet app on your iPhone.
- Tap the '+' sign in the top right corner.
- Follow the instructions to add a new card, using your Sharesies Spend card details.
- Verify your card, usually through the Sharesies app or an SMS code.
- For Google Pay:
- Open the Google Wallet app on your Android device.
- Tap 'Add a card' or the '+' icon.
- Enter your Sharesies Spend card details manually or by scanning your card.
- Complete the verification process as prompted, typically via the Sharesies app or an SMS.
Once set up, you can use your device to tap and pay wherever Apple Pay or Google Pay is accepted, which is common across New Zealand retailers. This enhances the security of your transactions as your actual card number isn't shared with merchants.
