This no longer has to happen: you can now make purchases in online shops that offer TWINT Express Checkout in just a tap of the screen – without having to fill out an order form. All you need to complete the simple and quick checkout process is your personal TWINT ID.

Save time with TWINT ID

TWINT ID simplifies and speeds up your shopping experience at the cash register and online. It takes a lot of work off your hands, for example when you have to fill out an order form. TWINT Express Checkout for online shops is the first application for which we are using TWINT ID. Further applications are set to follow and make your day-to-day life considerably easier.

TWINT ID will be gradually rolled out in every TWINT app but will be operated by TWINT AG – your bank cannot view your TWINT ID data.

We will not use your TWINT ID data for marketing purposes such as newsletters and we will not disclose your data to third parties.

How to create your personal TWINT ID

TWINT ID is free and optional. You can continue using your TWINT app like normal without creating a customer profile. However, TWINT ID makes your life and the shopping experience much simpler. It is therefore worth your while to create a customer profile. It’s easier than counting to 3.
