PayPal Stories Archive

Our mobile phones have evolved to become our wallets and shopping carts. In fact, PayPal processed $46 billion in mobile payment volume last year and is continuously working to provide you simpler and more secure ways to shop and pay from your mobile device.

 

But choosing a new mobile phone isn’t easy. There’s a lot to consider from size, color, functionality and how it fits best in with your day to day life. As you’re deciding on your next phone, we’re excited to announce you can use fingerprint authentication technology on the new LG V10 to login to PayPal and shop at any merchant that accepts PayPal online.  

 

All you need to do is visit your LG V10 settings and follow the steps to link your fingerprint with PayPal. The next time you’re checking-out on your mobile phone with a merchant that accepts PayPal, you can use your fingerprint to login and complete the purchase – no need to remember passwords. For more information on market availability for fingerprint authentication on the LG V10 visit LG’s blog.

 

As one of the founding members of the Fast Identity Online (FIDO) Alliance, we strongly believe that industry collaboration is required to create a future that moves beyond the password. And our support for the LG V10 fingerprint technology is just another example of how we’re helping you authenticate in more secure and convenient ways.

 

With the busiest shopping season just around the corner, enabling you to shop securely and conveniently is more important than ever and always our highest priority.  We want to make sure your shopping experience is as smooth and easy as possible – whether it’s using biometrics like fingerprint authentication or shopping online with PayPal One Touch.
