Visa has announced the launch of Garmin Pay in the Philippines, allowing users of compatible Garmin smartwatches to make contactless payments using supported Visa cards.
The feature is currently available for eligible Visa debit and credit cards issued by participating banks, including GoTyme Bank, as well as supported foreign-issued Visa cards.
Garmin Pay allows users to tap their smartwatch at contactless payment terminals without using a physical card or smartphone. Transactions use Visa’s tokenization technology, which replaces card details with digital tokens to help reduce fraud risks.
Visa said the Philippines is now the fourth Southeast Asian market to support Garmin Pay after Singapore, Vietnam, Thailand, and Malaysia.
The company added that the launch expands digital payment options in the country following the rollout of Google Wallet and Google Pay in the Philippines in 2025.
