By GlobalDataThe companies are seeking a broader roll-out early next year.
In a statement, Mastercard said: “As the prevalence of ecommerce has grown, click to pay now helps to address an increasing need for a consistent, simple user experience and stronger protection of payment information across all types of digital channels and cards.”
The companies expect the new service to offer simple and secure digital payments.
The service is also intended to cut down shopping cart abandonment rates and provide various card brands for digital checkout on one platform.
