• Guests at hotels operated by Meliá Hotels International will be able to pay with their mobile device through the CaixaBank Pay application or using the new Samsung Pay mobile payment service;

The partnership will allow the hotel company to use the latest CaixaBank payment technology and allow its customers to enjoy all the benefits of mobile payment solutions.
Meliá now allows customers to make payments in hotels and restaurants with their smartphones.

Mobile technology is a fundamental focus in our Digital Transformation at Meliá ".

Meliá POS devices will also accept payments for purchases using wearable devices.

CaixaBank is the leading financial institution in innovation in payment methods, with a strong commitment to the development of new digital services. Its Global Commercial Payments subsidiary provides cutting-edge solutions that allow the handling of transactions with any means of payment.
In addition to developing latest generation POS systems and payment gateways, CaixaBank also issues cards in all types of formats, from wearable accessories such as contactless bracelets through to mobile payment applications.
The financial institution has its own payment application for Android devices called CaixaBank Pay, which allows customers to download their CaixaBank Visa cards to their phone and use the phone as if it were a contactless card to buy things in any stores with an adapted data phone.
In addition to making payments, CaixaBank Pay also provides credit card management services, credit balance and recent transaction requests, activating or blocking cards and payment by instalments.

The data security of these new means of payment provided by CaixaBank is guaranteed. Customers are fully covered for any electronic payments for which they are not responsible thanks to the CaixaProtect service, which guarantees the security of card services, online banking and CaixaBank mobile banking.
