Bendigo Launches Apply Pay

Bendigo Bank appears to have quietly broken ranks and launched Apple Pay despite the fact the bank was on the list of banks who were  part of the failed attempt via ACCC to get Apple to allow NAB, CBA and WBC to have access to Apple’s NFC chip with their own apps. ANZ already offers Apple Pay.

Now you can enjoy all the benefits of your Bendigo Bank Mastercard with Apple Pay on iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, and Mac. Using Apple Pay is simple, and it works with the devices you use every day. Your card information is secure because it isn’t stored on your device or shared when you pay. Paying in stores, apps, and on the web has never been easier, safer, or more private.*

To pay in stores, there is no need to wake your iPhone or open an app. Just hold iPhone near the reader with your finger on Touch ID. You’ll see “Done” on the display, along with a subtle vibration and beep, letting you know your payment information was sent. On Apple Watch, double-click the side button and hold the display of your Apple Watch up to the reader. A gentle tap and beep confirm that your payment information was sent.*

Available anywhere contactless is accepted. You can pay with your iPhone or Apple Watch anywhere you can make contactless payments
