The app turns a Huawei smartwatch into a payment terminal, enabling merchants to accept instant Sepa payments directly on their wrist.

Customers scan a dynamic QR code generated on the watch face using the camera of their Smartphone, bypassing traditional card schemes and, says Yowpay, reducing transaction fees.

Christian Caumont, CEO, Yowpay, says: “By integrating our Open Banking and generally Sepa payments tech into Huawei’s industry-leading wearables, we are giving merchants total mobility and financial sovereignty.”
