TWINT

Pay easily with your smartphone

Whether it's at the supermarket checkout, a vending machine or online, paying with your smartphone will soon get even easier. This is made possible by TWINT, an app for iOS and Android. TWINT requires no credit or debit card, works independently of telecom providers and is available to everyone – regardless of whether they are a PostFinance customer.
