More and more users are “twinting” in online shops, at the cash register and with their friends. In other words, they are paying with their bank’s TWINT app. The e-commerce offering is currently the fastest grow-ing, with transactions in May increasing more than fivefold year on year. Paying with TWINT in online shops is proving popular. It is very quick and the amount is debited directly to the user’s bank account.
Lots of new online shops
Over 1,500 online shops such as digitec/galaxus, Brack.ch, ticketcorner.ch and coop@home already offer TWINT as a payment method, with new ones being added to the list all the time. In the last few months, these have included qualipet.ch, ochsnersport.ch, pfister.ch, jumbo.ch, perfecthair.ch and spruengli.ch. eat.ch, voegele-shoes.ch and deindeal.ch are just some of the other merchants set to join them in the next few weeks.
Pay at more and more cash registers with TWINT
TWINT is also steadily expanding its distribution among traditional retailers. For example, customers can now twint in shops such as Spar, The Body Shop, Toptip, Data Quest and Salt as well as at Socar petrol sta-tions. The option will soon also be available at Dosenbach, Ochsner and Zürichsee Schifffahrtsgesellschaft.
Win a luxury holiday with TWINT
To make even more customers aware that they can pay quickly with TWINT in online shops, TWINT will be launching a campaign in summer. All participants who twint in online shops at some point between June and August will be entered into a monthly draw to win a luxury holiday at Hotel Coeur des Alpes in Zermatt. Since 4 June 2018, a discount coupon to be redeemed in an online shop has also been available in the TWINT app every Monday.
