JazzCash customers can now link their debit cards to Google Wallet, allowing over 13 million monthly active app users to make secure and seamless tap-to-pay transactions. This new feature enables JazzCash users to turn their smartphones into convenient payment tools for effortless person-to-merchant (P2M) transactions.
The integration with Google Wallet adds to JazzCash’s extensive range of payment options, which already includes QR payments, tap-to-pay services, online payments, and debit cards. Customers can select from three compatible debit cards: the Mastercard Debit Card, the Women’s Debit Card, and the Virtual Debit Card.
The Virtual Debit Card can be set up instantly within the JazzCash app, while physical cards can be requested through the app or USSD for a one-time issuance fee.
Aamir Aftab, Chief Product Officer of JazzCash, emphasized the significance of this partnership in advancing financial inclusion through innovation. He stated, “By partnering with Google Wallet, JazzCash is building an open and interoperable ecosystem that provides secure and seamless digital payment solutions to millions of Pakistanis.” He further highlighted that such collaborations are crucial in making financial services accessible to all and promoting a cashless economy.
The process of adding a JazzCash debit card to Google Wallet is quick and simple. Once linked, users can make payments by unlocking their phone and holding it near a payment terminal. This feature offers unparalleled convenience for millions of Pakistanis who rely on JazzCash for daily financial transactions.
Google Wallet provides multiple layers of security through tokenization technology, which replaces sensitive card data with a dynamic, device-specific virtual card number. This ensures that even if the token is intercepted, it cannot be used for fraudulent transactions. Users can also safeguard their accounts using ‘Find My Device’ to lock their phone or erase personal information remotely in case of theft or loss.
JazzCash continues to lead the fintech industry with its innovative solutions. The platform recently won the ‘Pioneering Telco to Launch Tap on Phone’ award from Mastercard at Edge 2024 in Dubai and was nominated for the ‘Best Fintech Innovation’ category at the Global Mobile (GLOMO) Awards at MWC 2025 for its groundbreaking tap-to-pay solutions.
