Consumers from 16 markets across the globe to
be enabled to shop and pay using Visa Checkout
Visa Inc. today announced that Visa Checkout will become
available in a total of 16 markets in 2015, continuing the early
momentum the product has seen since launching in three markets in
the summer of 2014.
“Visa Checkout has seen tremendous growth in the U.S., Canada
and Australia in just the few months since its launch,” said Sam
Shrauger, senior vice president of Digital Solutions at Visa.
“Consumers and merchants alike love its simplicity and ease, which
is particularly important as people shop and buy more frequently on
smaller devices like phones and tablets. Building on this positive
momentum, we are aggressively carrying the service into new markets
across the world throughout 2015 and beyond.”
Today consumers from ten countries can sign up for Visa Checkout
at www.visacheckout.com and start using the service. In the coming
months, Visa will extend the service into new regions, so that by
the end of 2015 Visa Checkout will be available in the following 16
markets: the U.S., Australia, and Canada, where the product first
launched in July 2014, as well as Argentina, Brazil, Chile, China,
Colombia, Hong Kong, Peru, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand,
Singapore, South Africa and United Arab Emirates.
Consumers in newly-enabled markets will first be able to use
Visa Checkout to buy from merchants in the U.S., Australia and
Canada that accept Visa Checkout today and have the ability to
process shipping internationally. As the rollout continues this
year, select markets will begin to incorporate issuer, merchant,
acquirer, and channel partnerships to support local commerce with
Visa Checkout. Visa will also launch localized Visa Checkout
websites for many of these markets.
Visa Checkout Market Momentum
Visa Checkout is already making it easier for millions of
consumers to pay with their cards online and on any device. Over
three million Visa Checkout accounts have been created to date, and
Visa Checkout merchants see a 70%+ average conversion for existing
users making a purchase.
Visa Checkout is an online service from Visa that makes it
easier to pay using a computer, tablet or mobile phone. Consumers
simply store their shipping and payment information in a secure
account with Visa once, and they never have to re-enter it again
when shopping online at merchants who offer Visa Checkout. When a
user sees the Visa Checkout button as a payment option, they simply
log into their account, enter their username and password, and
click a button to complete the purchase.

its continuing global expansion will be available at

Visa will demonstrate Visa Checkout at Mobile World Congress in
Barcelona, Spain (Hall 6, stand D40) during March 2-5, 2015.
