The Curve Pay application allows users to make a TAP-to PAY without using Apple Pay or the Wallet application after PayPal's debut O. similar functionality in Germany earlier this month. This function became possible thanks to Europe to digital markets, which forced Apple to open its NFC chip for third -party developers. Users can reassign purchases to different cards after the completion of transactions and bind various sources of payments, including PayPal accounts. Its architecture of the “phased wallet” also gives users more control over the payment process compared to conventional digital wallets. The company joins PayPal in the offer of European alternatives to iPhone Apple Pay users, since German cooperative banks also plan to submit their own payment decision of the NFC through their banking application in September this year.
