Dubai, United Arab Emirates - AWOK.com http://awok.com/, one of the largest E-Commerce companies in the UAE has now brought to  its customers Apple Pay which is transforming mobile payments with an easy, secure and private way to pay that’s fast and convenient.

With Apple Pay, a shopper on the AWOK iOS app can simply add an item to the basket, click “proceed to checkout,” confirm payment through Apple Pay, and be done. When all it takes is a few affirmatives on the customer’s touchscreen, instead of using the keypad to retype all the relevant information. This increases the ease of payment for the customer. To celebrate the launch of Apple Pay, AWOK customers using Apple Pay on the AWOK iOS app in the UAE will receive Free Shipping from 30th October 2017 to 15th November,2017.

Security, privacy and convenience is at the core of Apple Pay. When you use a credit or debit card with Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the device, nor on Apple servers. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element on your device. Each transaction is authorized with a one-time unique dynamic security code.

Mr. Ulugbek Yuldashev, CEO & Founder, AWOK.com <http://awok.com/>, said, “Apple Pay is one of the best ecommerce payment technologies around today and we are pleased to have adopted it. Today, nearly 80 percent of our transactions take place through mobile phones hence this tie-up definitely provides us a competitive advantage. We are thrilled that our customers can now use Apple Pay. Paying directly with one’s phone offers convenience, speed, and security to all our customers.

Apple Pay is easy to set up and users will continue to receive all of the rewards and benefits offered by credit and debit cards. In stores, Apple Pay works with iPhone SE, iPhone 6 and later, and Apple Watch. 

Online shopping in apps and on websites accepting Apple Pay is as simple as the touch of a finger with Touch ID, so there’s no need to manually fill out lengthy account forms or repeatedly type in shipping and billing information.
