　　Expo 2020 Dubai and Mastercard have teamed up to ‘start something priceless’ as part of a reimagined cashless visitor experience for the next World Expo.

　　As Expo 2020’s Official Payment Technology Partner, Mastercard will use cutting-edge solutions, including virtual and augmented reality systems, face and fingerprint recognition, voice shopping and wearable technologies, to enable personalised and seamless cashless payments.

　　The partnership, which was announced during the Mastercard Connecting Tomorrow Forum in Barcelona, Spain, will ensure a fast, intuitive and reliable payment experience for Expo’s millions of visitors, while offering exciting and innovative new ways to pay.
