Ahead of this weeks 2015 Cheltenham Festival, digital payments company Skrill has announced that its Skrill 1-Tap payment solution has been added to online bookmaker RaceBets.com, bringing a convenient and secure payment process to mobile and desktop users.

Skrill 1-Tap connects with Skrills digital wallet solution to offer quick and easy mobile payments to both merchants and customers, and will enable RaceBets customers to make payments with a single tap on any device, without the need to repeatedly enter their login details or sensitive credit card information.

Skrill has already integrated with a number of gambling merchants including Betfred, Bet365 and SBOBET, and provides merchants with increased conversion rates and customer spend via in-play betting, as well as optimising the mobile experience for customers.

“We know that ease of use and convenience are important factors to both our consumers and merchants,” said Paul Barclay, vice president of gambling at Skrill. “Our 1-Tap solution was developed with this in mind and has been very popular with merchants as they seek to make the online payment process as slick as possible. RaceBets customers can now make seamless payments in a secure way wherever and whenever they wish.

“The future is mobile and Skrills focus on innovation means we are able to meet customers changing needs. We will continue to focus on delivering technology-led products that suit our customers needs.”
