Africa’s Global Bank, United Bank for Africa (UBA) Plc, has set new standards in digital banking by being the first to enable Google Pay for eligible Visa and Mastercard users, reinforcing its commitment towards delivering innovative, secure and convenient payment solutions.
With this development, eligible customers can now make fast and convenient digital payments using compatible devices, further enhancing their banking experience and expanding access to modern payment technologies.
Google Pay, which launches in Nigeria on Tuesday, October 27, 2026, is a digital payment service that allows eligible users to make contactless payments at supported payment terminals using compatible devices.
