Visa is now your bracelet, your car or your phone.

Check out how we’re bringing the future to now with these existing or prototype ways to pay.

Our world is changing. The rapid development of new payment technologies now enable you to pay with your mobile phone and wearable devices. But the more things change, one thing will remain the same, Visa will still offer you the same high level of security on all new methods of payment as we do on your Visa card.

Reliable and Secure

Whether we’re working together with phone manufacturers or technology companies, or developing new products ourselves like Visa Checkout, you can be assured that payments will be convenient, reliable and most importantly secure.

Wearables

Who takes a wallet running? But a wearable device lets you buy a coffee or a cool drink at the end of your run. Wearables pay bands have been designed especially for active use. These waterproof wearable pay bands feature Visa payWave technology and can be linked to any existing account. Wearable payment bands are available in Australia from DCTag and Optus Pay.

Limited edition sunnies

At Visa, we’re always looking ahead to the next big thing in payments. That’s why we’ve been working with favourite Aussie designers, Local Supply to develop a pair of limited edition sunnies you can pay with.  

Perfect for the beach or a day out at a music festival, you’d be able to leave your wallet at home knowing you can pay with your sunnies wherever Visa payWave is accepted. 

We’re looking at more ways to make payment technology that fits your life, and your style. In the meantime, check out our test product concept in action at St Jerome’s Laneway Festival here.

Biometrics

We’re continuously looking at ways to improve the payment experience for Visa users and we see biometrics as part of the future of payments.

Internet of things

Connected devices are getting smarter and there will be 50 billion of them by 2020.

The connected car represents a vision for the future shared by car manufacturers and innovators across a number of industries. But what will a connected car do that a phone can’t? A lot. Connected cars will receive information automatically. Everything that you type into your phone: where you’re going, how you decided to get there, when you arrive—the car will already know.

Visa payWave for mobile

Australians are now able to make Visa payWave contactless payments using NFC-enabled smart phone – by tapping their phone in front of a Visa payWave contactless terminal.

Push Payments

While Australia leads the world in adopting many new ways to pay, there is one segment where services have not kept pace with changing consumer trends: paying each other or paying from a business to a customer.

Tokenisation: Why Australia, Why Now

The digital revolution has created an almost unlimited ability to participate in commerce. New payment experiences through mobile, tablet, PCs and future connected devices present major opportunities for our industry. As these new payment experiences evolve, so must the security measures that protect consumers’ confidential account information. This white paper discusses tokenisation, a new layer of security for digital payments that opens the door for new ways to pay.
