11st SK Pay Starts Offline NFC Payments

14,000 Stores Accepting Payments

11st announced on the 17th that its simple payment service SK Pay has launched an NFC (Near Field Communication) payment service at offline stores.

There are about 14,000 stores where NFC payment is available. Users can utilize various payment methods including card payments pre-registered on SK Pay (excluding some card companies), prepaid recharge payments (SK Pay Money), account transfers, and mobile micropayments.

By running the latest version of the SK Pay application (app), selecting the desired payment method, and then performing biometric authentication or entering the payment password, the payment is completed by holding the device close to the SK Pay dedicated NFC tag. SK Pay payments can also be enabled and used in the T Membership app, where discounts and points accumulation are automatically applied at T Membership affiliated stores.

An 11st official said, “With SK Pay, which added NFC payment, we now provide the most convenient payment service not only online but also offline,” and added, “We will focus on enhancing customer payment convenience with SK Pay, whose motto is ‘the world’s easiest payment,’ as well as securing competitiveness in various linked services based on payment.”
