This is a milestone, as more than half of the people in Switzerland use the versatile features of the app. However, this was not the only record that TWINT was able to achieve in the past year. TWINT users carried out a total of 386 million transactions in 2022. This is more than in all of the previous years since the app was launched combined.

“We are delighted that more than half of the people in Switzerland now count on TWINT in their day-to-day lives”,

“TWINT has become a symbol for the digital simplification of everyday life. What’s more, it has made Switzerland one of the leading countries in Europe in terms of mobile payments”.

Whether paying at the cash register, online, at farm shops or when visiting the cinema with friends, the possible applications of TWINT are growing just as steadily as its use. While the app is most frequently used at the supermarket checkout, it is also very popular for purchasing tickets for public transport, paying parking fees and for shopping in neighbourhood stores and specialist retailers.
