Is it possible to save a card on Opera mobile?
Opera for mobile devices does not have a built-in feature to save payment methods or credit cards. However, there are alternative solutions available on mobile devices that offer similar functionality.
For Android users, Google Pay is a widely used mobile payment platform that allows you to securely store your credit card information and make payments within supported apps and websites. You can install the Google Pay app from the Google Play Store and follow the instructions to add your credit card details.
Similarly, for iOS users, Apple Pay provides a secure and convenient way to save credit card information on your iPhone or iPad. By adding your cards to the Wallet app and authenticating with Touch ID or Face ID, you can make payments using Apple Pay in supported apps, websites, and physical stores.
Is it safe to store card information in the Opera browser?
The safety of storing card information in the Opera browser is a valid concern for users. Opera takes user security and privacy seriously. When storing card information, Opera encrypts and stores the data locally on your device. Your card details are not transmitted to Opera’s servers or accessible to anyone else using Opera.
However, it’s important to note that no storage method is entirely foolproof, and there is always a risk in storing sensitive information. Strong passwords and regularly updating your browser and operating system are recommended to ensure maximum security. Remember that if someone gains access to your computer, this intruder can easily access the card information stored in Opera.
Can Opera GX and Opera Crypto Browser also save cards?
Opera GX and Opera Crypto Browser, like the standard Opera browser, offer the ability to save payment methods. Viewing, deleting, and adding cards to the saved payment methods is similar to the earlier steps.
However, it is crucial to understand that while these browsers may provide additional features tailored to specific use cases (such as gaming or cryptocurrency), the underlying security measures for storing card information remain consistent with the standard Opera browser.
