Fawry, Egypt’s leading fintech company, has announced the launch of Apple Pay for its customers in collaboration with Banque Misr, offering a safer, more secure, and private way to pay. The new service enables customers to avoid handing over payment cards, touching physical buttons, or exchanging cash — while leveraging the power of iPhone technology to protect every transaction.
A Safer, Smarter Way to Pay
With Apple Pay, Fawry customers can simply hold their iPhone or Apple Watch near a payment terminal to complete a contactless payment. Each purchase made with Apple Pay is authenticated through Face ID, Touch ID, or a device passcode, along with a unique, one-time dynamic security code, ensuring every transaction remains private and secure.
Apple Pay is accepted in a wide range of locations, including grocery stores, pharmacies, taxis, restaurants, cafés, retail outlets, and many more — making daily transactions smoother and more convenient.
Seamless Digital Experience Across Devices
Customers can also use Apple Pay on iPhone, iPad, and Mac to make faster and easier purchases in apps or on the web via Safari — without the need to create new accounts or repeatedly enter shipping and billing details.
From paying for food deliveries and groceries to transportation and parking, Apple Pay simplifies the digital payment experience. Additionally, users can make payments directly through Apple Watch apps, enhancing on-the-go convenience and accessibility.
Security and Privacy at the Core
Security and privacy lie at the heart of Apple Pay’s design. When customers use a credit or debit card with Apple Pay, the actual card number is never stored on the device or on Apple servers. Instead, a unique Device Account Number is generated, encrypted, and securely stored in the Secure Element — a certified, industry-standard chip designed to safely hold payment information.
This advanced encryption and authentication structure ensures that each transaction is both private and protected, reinforcing Fawry’s commitment to secure and reliable financial technologies.
Simple Setup and Instant Activation
Setting up Apple Pay is quick and easy. On iPhone, customers can simply open the Apple Wallet app, tap the “+” sign, and follow the instructions to add their myfawry yellowcard. Once added, users can start using Apple Pay instantly across iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, and Mac.
Customers will continue to enjoy all the rewards and benefits associated with their myfawry yellowcard, while experiencing a modern, contactless payment solution that enhances convenience, safety, and privacy.
By launching Apple Pay in partnership with Banque Misr, Fawry continues to drive Egypt’s digital transformation and promote cashless payment adoption, aligning with national efforts to strengthen financial inclusion and build a secure, tech-driven economy.
