Huawei Pay U.S. Launch Possible
Huawei has its own mobile payments service that has been limited to China so far but that might be about to change in the near future. A trademark application has surfaced which suggests that Huawei Pay might be heading to the United States. Huawei already filed for an identical “Huawei Pay” trademark in Europe.
The European Union Intellectual Property Office is examining the company’s trademark request. The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office is reviewing it as well. It’s unclear when these bodies will grant approval to Huawei. It may take up to a few months possibly.
Huawei Pay is quite similar to some of the other mobile payments service out there. It relies on NFC technology to process contactless payments on the go. Huawei Pay was introduced in China by the company back in early 2016.
It hasn’t really detailed plans for international expansion but the trademark filings are a big indication that Huawei is thinking about moving into markets that are already seeing intense competition from the likes of Apple Pay, Samsung Pay, and Android Pay.
The company is due to launch its new flagship smartphones next month. Perhaps it might talk more about the roadmap for Huawei Pay in Europe and the United States at its event on October 16th. Huawei hasn’t confirmed or denied expansion plans for Huawei Pay just yet.
