CaixaBank customers carried out 100.7 million mobile payment transactions in June 2025, up 34.4% on the same month last year, showing a consistent increase in the use of payments via mobile devices and wearables. The bank is pressing forward with its digital transformation, with record mobile payment transactions and an expanding customer base.

Over the last 12 months, the number of CaixaBank mobile payment customers has grown by 15.3% to reach 4.85 million, while the number of cards enrolled on digital devices has risen by 12.4% and now exceeds 7.3 million.

This means that 38% of card purchases are already made via mobile devices and wearables, a figure that is expected to rise sharply in the short term. This trend reveals not only an ongoing consolidation of payments by mobile phone, but also CaixaBank’s leadership in transforming digital consumption habits in Spain.

The bank offers a wide range of options for using its cards via mobile devices and wearables: Google Pay (for users of Android devices), Apple Pay (for iPhone, Apple Watch, iPad, and Mac), Samsung Pay, Garmin Pay, and SwatchPAY. Using these technologies, customers can make purchases in physical stores with contactless payment terminals and to pay using apps and e-commerce websites with their mobile phones.

Advances in mobile payments help to ensure a smoother, more secure and personalised user experience, in line with customer expectations. With three layers of security and payment authorisation via biometric patterns, CaixaBank makes sure that all transactions are secure.
