888 Casino Adds Apple Pay Payments for UK Players
Published August 2, 2017 by Ivan P
Apple Pay has been added as a payment method for deposits and withdrawals for players from the United Kingdom at 888 Casino.
888 Casino has joined the trend that's been present with other major gambling operators around the globe adding Apple Pay as one of their deposit and withdrawal methods. Currently, Apple Pay is only available to 888 Casino players from the United Kingdom, but this addition represents a major convenience that many of their UK-based customers will certainly appreciate, and perhaps its availability will expand for other markets in the future.
Pay with Your Phone & Protect Your Data
The Apple Pay system is really simple and highly efficient. It lets players use their Apple devices, such as Mac, iPhone, iPad, and even iWatch, as a safe electronic wallet for their online purchases. The technology has been used by other online merchants for some time, and now online casinos like 888 Casino are also following suit.
Apple Pay uses credit or debit card information stored on the user's device to process the transactions and fund the deposits without ever having to share the sensitive financial information with another third party such as an online casino. The transaction is practically instantaneous and the player doesn't have to go through any complicated steps once their Apple Pay is set up properly.
Simplicity & Privacy
Paying with Apple Pay is really as simple as it sounds, since the system works with a majority of big credit and debit cards. Payments are processed straight from the card, but players never have to actually share their card and personal information with anyone other than Apple.
Furthermore, the purchase history isn't stored anywhere outside of the latest few transactions saved within the wallet for the players' convenience. This gives players an additional layer of privacy when depositing with Apple Pay, which is something many will undoubtedly appreciate.
Hopefully, this trend will continue with other online casinos, and we'll see more and more operators offering Apple Pay in the near future.
