Click to Pay is designed to transform digital checkouts and meet EMVCo standards. It utilises the Visa Token Service (VTS) to provide multiple layers of advanced security, enhancing authorization rates and reducing fraud in digital commerce. By replacing sensitive card information, such as the 16-digit Primary Account Numbers (PANs), with tokens, VTS can reduce fraud by 58%[2] and increase authorization rates by an average of 2.5% in Asia Pacific[3], compared to PAN-based card-not-present (CNP) transactions. Click to Pay with Visa simplifies the checkout experience for customers – it's like contactless payments in-store, but for online shopping.

US, India push for trade pact after Trump strikes deal with Vietnam
US and India trade negotiators are pushing to try to land a tariff-reducing deal ahead of President Donald Trump's July 9 negotiating deadline, but disagreements over US dairy and agriculture remained unresolved, sources familiar with the talks said. The push comes as Trump announced an agreement with Vietnam that cuts US tariffs on many Vietnamese goods to 20 per cent from his previously threatened 46 per cent. Trump said that US products could enter Vietnam duty free, but details were scant. Trump threatened a 26 per cent duty on Indian goods as part of his April 2 "Liberation Day" reciprocal tariffs, which were temporarily lowered to 10 per cent to buy time for negotiations. Sources in India's commerce ministry said that a trade delegation from India was still in Washington a week after arriving for talks that started last Thursday and Friday. They may stay longer to conclude a deal, but without compromising on key agricultural and dairy issues, the sources said, adding that it was unacceptable to lower tariffs on genetically modified corn, soybeans, rice and wheat grown in the US. Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government "doesn't want to be seen as surrendering the interests of farmers - a strong political group in the country," one of the sources said. However, India is open to lowering tariffs on walnuts, cranberries and other fruits, along with medical devices, autos and energy products, the source said. A US source familiar with the talks said that there were "indications that they are close" and negotiators have been told to prepare for a potential announcement. The source added that "there's been intense and constructive effort to close a deal. I think both sides understand the strategic importance, beyond the economic importance, of closing a deal". Trump echoed those sentiments on Tuesday, telling reporters on Air Force One that he could reach a deal with India that would cut tariffs for both countries and help American companies compete in India's market of 1.4 billion consumers. At the same time, Trump cast doubt on a potential deal with Japan, saying he may impose a tariff of 30 per cent or 35 per cent on Japanese goods, well above the 24 per cent duty rate he announced on April 2. Japan is seeking to lower separate 25 per cent automotive and steel tariffs that Trump imposed.

UAE Leads the World in Mobile Shopping Adoption: Visa
The UAE has become the global leader in mobile shopping, outpacing advanced markets like Singapore and the UK, according to the 2025 Global Digital Shopping Index released by Visa Acceptance Solutions and PYMNTS Intelligence. The report, based on a survey of 1,679 consumers and 329 merchants, found that 67% of UAE consumers used their phones during their most recent retail purchase—a 23% jump since 2022. With 37% of transactions completed fully on mobile, the UAE tops the world in mobile-driven shopping experiences. Consumer preferences continue to shift toward convenience and innovation. Thirty-two percent used biometric authentication such as fingerprint or facial recognition, nearly double the global average. Cross-channel shopping is also on the rise, with over half of UAE shoppers blending physical and digital retail touchpoints. Local consumers also ranked among the highest globally in valuing loyalty rewards (75%), free shipping (73%), and price matching (70%). Notably, 38% opted for home delivery via mobile or desktop for their most recent retail purchase. Millennials lead the mobile-first movement at 73%, while Gen Z and Gen X follow closely. Older generations lag behind, with only 18% of baby boomers and seniors using mobile devices for their latest purchase. Visa's UAE Country Manager Salima Gutieva credited the strong collaboration between merchants, regulators, and tech providers for driving innovation. 'The UAE's approach shows what is possible when all stakeholders work together to build the future of commerce,' she said. These findings reflect the UAE's push to remain at the forefront of digital transformation, creating a seamless, secure, and tech-forward retail ecosystem. News Source: Emirates News Agency
