Travelers using Apple Pay for flight purchases on the Cleartrip App will get an instant AED 100 discount

As part of its efforts to make travel simple for its customers, Cleartrip, the leading mobile and online travel company in the Middle East, today announces the integration of Apple Pay on its mobile application.

With the launch of Apple’s digital wallet in the UAE, Cleartrip customers can now look forward to a quicker and safer way to check out on the Cleartrip mobile app. Apple Pay supports all devices running iOS 11 and works with iPhone SE, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus and later, and Apple Watch.

“As the preferred travel partner of consumers in the UAE as well as the wider region, we are dedicated to building industry-leading travel solutions. Understanding and addressing our customers’ needs, like easy payment options, is at the heart of why we launched Apple Pay on the Cleartrip app,” said Stuart Crighton, Founder & CEO of Cleartrip.

To support the launch, customers using Apple Pay to purchase on the Cleartrip iOS app will benefit from an instant discount of AED 100 on flights.

Apple rolled out Apple Pay in the UAE today (October 24, 2017) in a move that is expected to revolutionize the country’s digital economy. The service is already available in a number of countries including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, China, Russia, France, Japan and Hong Kong.

Cashless payments have been rapidly gaining momentum in the country, with the government identifying them as a top priority in the UAE’s Vision 2021. Innovative solutions such as Apple Pay also contribute to the UAE’s efforts to develop a safe and secure digital payment ecosystem that boosts convenience while reducing hassle and time across industries.

“At Cleartrip, we remain committed to providing a seamless user experience for our guests, in line with the ever-increasing needs of our tech-savvy consumers in the region, to deliver the highest levels of customer retention and loyalty,” Crighton added.
