QIB offers Google Pay to its customers

Qatar Islamic Bank (QIB), Qatar’s leading digital bank, has introduced Google Pay to Debit, Credit and Prepaid Cardholders to start using their Android and WearOS devices to tap and pay on the go.

Google Pay is a digital wallet and payment platform from Google that enables customers to pay for transactions with their QIB cards using their Android and WearOS devices in-stores and online, where contactless payments are accepted. Cardholders will be able to store credit, debit or prepaid cards on Google Wallet app in order to start using Google Pay.

Additionally, customers can set up Google Pay on their watches by setting a screen lock and following the instructions on the phone to add their credit or debit cards and the card will be shown on the watch.
