Viva Wallet also revealed that for the Android users of the new countries, the process of activating the new service is as follows:

“Through their Viva Wallet account the users choose to add their Viva Wallet Mastercard to Google Pay. Once they have added their card, they can start using their phone to tap and pay wherever contactless transactions are accepted, such as in a store or for public transport, without needing to take out their wallet or use a pin pad.”
