Apple Pay introduced on 3 Tallink ships
Apple Pay contactless payments are offered in collaboration with the
provider of payment services Nets, and the payments are currently available to
the Swedish and Finnish customers of Nordea, Jyske and St1 banks on the Tallink ships Megastar, Star and Silja
Europa plying the Helsinki-Tallinn route.
"Considering how new Apple Pay as a means of payment is in our region,
I am very glad that we can offer this solution to our customers, albeit to a
limited number of customers at this point," Tallink Grupp sales and marketing director Margus Hunt said in a press release.
He added that Tallink wishes to
start offering this possibility also to customers of Estonian banks and on
other routes as technical possibilities develop.
"The Apple Pay contactless payment solution was introduced in Finland
only a couple of weeks ago, and for now the solution can be used by the clients
of a few banks only. We on our part will go on doing the development work to be
able to offer to Tallink and to our
other clients an ever growing number of different payment solutions," Nets
sales director Petri Carpen said.
