Starting this June, Huawei Watch Fit 4 Series users in Spain will be able to enjoy one of the most anticipated key features: Contactless payments using NFC technology, now available on the Fit 4 and Fit 4 Pro models. This new feature makes the brand's latest smartwatches a complete alternative for those who want to pay quickly and securely without needing physical cards or a mobile phone. Amid the expansion of digital payments, the arrival of this feature to Huawei marks an important step for its ecosystem in our country.
The deployment of NFC is accompanied by a very practical approach: Integrate contactless payment directly into the watch, eliminating the usual dependence on a smartphone. With just a double tap on the side button and entering the PIN, the transaction can be authorized in seconds. In this initial phase, the feature comes with the Quicko Wallet app, compatible with Android and Huawei phones. For now, the option is not available on iPhone or the Watch 5 series, although in the latter case, it is expected to be a matter of time.
How NFC payment works on the Huawei Fit 4 Series
To make payments, users must install Quicko Wallet, the partner app chosen by Huawei, which acts as a prepaid virtual wallet. This solution allows you to load funds from any bank to make purchases at contactless terminals, ensuring that Each transaction is protected by advanced encryption and unique authentication codes, This makes fraud difficult. The watch works independently once set up, so you don't need to carry your linked phone to pay.
Security has been one of the main axes of the launch: Each payment requires a PIN, and the codes for each transaction are unique. This improves privacy compared to traditional methods, reducing the risk of card duplication or data theft. Since it's a virtual card, the user decides the balance to be transferred, adding extra peace of mind against unauthorized use.
Technical details and user experience
The Huawei Watch Fit 4 Pro stands out in the sports and health sector: It features high-precision GPS, offline maps, altitude and atmospheric pressure sensors, and a battery that can last up to 10 days. Its ultra-thin design (less than 1 cm thick) and lightweight, starting at 30 grams, make it very comfortable for continuous use, even during long training sessions or outdoor activities.
The device also provides advanced options for athletes: From comprehensive metrics for runners (technical analysis, personalized plans) to modes for swimming, cycling, golf, and trekking.
