Mobile-first contactless: Digital wallets projected to overtake credit cards by 2030
Google Pay and Apple Pay are widely used mobile wallets in Hong Kong, enabling tap-to-pay transactions across retail and transit. As key payment methods in 2026, they are supported by Visa, Mastercard, and UnionPay networks, and benefit from high smartphone usage and extensive contactless POS coverage. For publishers, these wallets help drive conversion by offering fast, secure, and widely accepted payment experiences across everyday transactions.
