Loves has added tap to pay to its checkout process, making it even more convenient for customers to make payments.

Tap to Pay Benefits
Tap to pay offers a quick and hassle-free payment experience, significantly reducing wait times at checkout.
Convenience is key, and tap to pay delivers. Customers can complete transactions with a simple tap, which is a huge time-saver for businesses during peak times.
Tap to pay uses advanced security features, such as tokenization, dynamic data authentication, biometric authentication, secure elements, real-time monitoring, and two-factor authentication, to safeguard sensitive information.
Tokenization replaces sensitive payment data with a unique token, making it useless to hackers outside that specific transaction.
Tap to pay also offers biometric authentication, such as facial recognition or fingerprint scanning, for added security.
The technology is so secure that it's considered a safe method of payment, with features like transaction limits to minimize the impact of potential fraud.
Here are some of the advanced security features used in tap to pay:
- Tokenization: replaces sensitive payment data with a unique token
- Dynamic Data Authentication (DDA): generates a one-time cryptographic code for each transaction
- Biometric Authentication: uses facial recognition or fingerprint scanning for added security
- Secure Element (SE): stores card data in a tamper-resistant chip
- Real-time Monitoring: continuously monitors transactions for suspicious activity
- Two-factor Authentication (2FA): adds an extra verification step, such as a one-time password
- Contactless Payment Limits: capping the amount that can be spent using tap to pay
