Payment Rings
Pay with a gesture, not your wallet.
PAGO is a payment ring with an NFC chip: hold your hand to the terminal, done. No battery, no smartphone, no digging through your wallet.
Put it on once, always with you.
Four reasons why thousands of people leave their wallet at home.
Fastest way to pay
Hand to the terminal, done. No unlocking, no tapping, no searching for a card or phone.
Never charge again
The NFC chip needs no battery at all. Put it on once and use it for years.
Waterproof & robust
Scratch-resistant ceramic or robust metal. Stays on your finger during sport, swimming and everyday life.
Secure payments
Your card data is replaced by a token and the ring only triggers in the right hand position, a few centimetres from the terminal. Lost it? Block it with one tap in the PAGO app.
Works with Mastercard cards from leading banks in Bahrain and Saudi Arabia.
Link the Mastercard of one of our partner banks in the PAGO app and pay with your ring straight away. We are adding new banks continuously.
Frequently asked questions.
How does a payment ring work?
The ring contains an NFC chip that is linked to your Mastercard. You hold your hand to the card terminal and the chip transmits an encrypted payment token. The process is identical to contactless card payments, except you never take anything out of your pocket.
Is a payment ring secure?
Yes. Your real card details never leave the ring. Only an encrypted token is transmitted, unique to each ring. If the ring is lost, it can be deactivated without replacing your card. The range is only a few centimetres.
Which banks does PAGO work with?
In Bahrain: National Bank of Bahrain, Bahrain Islamic Bank, Kuwait Finance House, Al Baraka Islamic Bank, CrediMax (BCFC), Arab Bank, stc pay and Infinios. In Saudi Arabia: Saudi National Bank, Riyad Bank, Arab National Bank, Banque Saudi Fransi, Saudi Awwal Bank, Bank Aljazira and United Company for Financial Services. Mastercard cards only. Full list.
Do I need to charge the ring?
No. The NFC chip works passively and draws its energy from the terminal at the moment of payment. There is no battery and nothing to charge.
Is the ring waterproof?
Yes. PAGO rings are made of scratch-resistant ceramic or robust metal and are water and dust resistant. Wear them during sport, swimming and everyday life.
How do I find my ring size?
Most reliably with our ring sizer: order your PAGO including the sizer, measure at home and then reorder free of charge in the right size. All details on the ring size page.
Do I need my smartphone to pay?
No. You only need the smartphone once for setup. After that you pay completely without a phone; the ring works on its own at any card terminal.
Pay with a wow effect.
