[News] ANZ To Launch a Mobile Wallet
ANZ will release a mobile wallet later this year within ANZ goMoney, ANZ’s mobile banking app. The wallet will be yet another enhancement to ANZ goMoney and will enable customers to make contactless payments with just one tap of their Android smart phones.

“The ANZ goMoney Wallet will transform the way New Zealanders pay for goods and services,” said Liz Maguire, ANZ’s Head of Digital Channels and Transformation.
“Mobile wallet is the next evolution in payments, enabling customers to use smartphones to make everyday credit or debit card purchases – such as coffee, petrol or groceries.
“Our goal is for the goMoney Wallet to be the most accessible, secure and easiest to use mobile payments solution in New Zealand.”
The key benefit of the goMoney Wallet is that it will be within ANZ’s trusted mobile banking app, ANZ goMoney, removing the need for a separate app or SIM card upgrade. Payments can be made with just one tap.
Using host card emulation (HCE) technology, the wallet will feature the most advanced encryption technology to protect customers’ financial information.
Ms Maguire said the project was on track for launch later this year.
ANZ and Semble remain in dialogue and ANZ will continue to watch Semble’s progress with interest following its launch.
