It enables vendors to deploy digital wallets, enable tokenization, facilitate instant payments and launch mobile point of sales. The Mastercard Engage connects issuers, merchants and IoT device manufacturers by enabling payments.

It recently announced a partnership with Bank of Montreal to deliver cost-efficient and faster international payment services to the bank’s Canadian-based business and banking clients.
