  "account": "Ryt Bank, a digital bank based in Malaysia, has become the first bank in the country to support both Apple Pay and Google Pay, according to a report by Bernama. Customers of Ryt Bank can now add their Ryt Card to Apple Wallet and utilize Apple Pay for transactions in physical stores, online platforms, and mobile applications. This move marks Ryt Bank as the pioneering digital bank in Malaysia to offer support for both Apple Pay and Google Pay.\n\nIn January, Ryt Bank had already introduced Google Pay support for its Ryt Card. With the introduction of Apple Pay, customers can make contactless payments using compatible Apple devices at merchants that accept the service. The authentication process for Apple Pay purchases involves Face ID, Touch ID, or a device passcode. To enhance security, payment information is safeguarded through a unique device account number and transaction-specific security code, as stated by Ryt Bank.\n\nAdding a Ryt Card to Apple Wallet is a straightforward process for customers with compatible Apple devices. They need to open the Wallet app, tap the '+' button, and follow the provided instructions to complete the setup.",
