Similarly, inCvak October 2024, Apple launched Tap to Pay in the country; enabling iPhone-using merchants to accept contactless payment by using an iPhone as a payment terminal. Customers can tap their contactless cards on the iPhone to make payment.
- The launch of Pay a Contact (Platby na kontakt) in November 2023 is set to further enhance instant payments in the Czech Republic. This P2P payment service enables users to transfer funds using the recipient's phone number, instead of their bank account details; simplifying domestic money transfers. Pay a Contact is built on a centralized Pay a Contact Register, operated by the Central Bank in collaboration with the Czech Banking Association. Currently, payments are limited to CZK5,000 ($225.25) per transaction and can be made only in Czech koruna (CZK). At the end of 2023, a total of 443,000 entities were recorded in the register.
- In September 2024, Skoda introduced Pay to Fuel in collaboration with the payment provider Parkopedia. The in-car navigation displays a list of petrol stations that accept Pay to Fuel. Upon arrival at a selected petrol station, the car automatically detects it. The driver can then enter the pump number and verify the gasoline station by launching the app on the car's screen. After refueling, the screen verifies the amount of fuel and the app adds debit or credit card information to process the payment. As confirmation, the driver receives a transaction notification in the MySkoda app.
