Curve Pay is available in Europe for the Huawei Watch Ultimate 2, the Huawei Watch GT 6, and a number of other Huawei smartwatches, significantly enhancing the contactless payment experience.
In the past, Quicko was the only contactless payment method available in Europe for smartwatches like the Huawei Watch GT 6. But as compared to Google Pay and Apple Pay, this approach has a lot of drawbacks. On the one hand, Quicko is not accepted in many retail chains, and credit needs to be topped up beforehand rather than just using a debit or credit card.
With the introduction of Curve Pay to Huawei smartwatches, Huawei is finally making amends. Like Apple Pay, Curve Pay lets you store numerous cards and use the NFC chip in your timepiece to make contactless purchases with them. Curve Pay is compatible with any bank account and permits cash withdrawals at an ATM, according to the vendor. The following Huawei smartwatches are compatible with Curve Pay:
- Huawei Watch GT Runner 2
- Huawei Watch Ultimate 2
- Huawei Watch GT 6
- Huawei Watch GT 5
- Huawei Watch 5
- Huawei Watch Fit 4
The Curve Pay app must be downloaded from Google Play, the Apple App Store, or the Huawei AppGallery in order to utilize the service. Instead of constantly switching to the smartphone app, stored payment methods can be chosen directly on the smartwatch via an integrated smart wallet once the app has been loaded, configured, and connected to the smartwatch. Curve Pay is free to use, but you may purchase different subscriptions if you want features like more cashback or bigger limits for free payments overseas.
