Digital Wallets Info
Cashless made effortless! You can now carry your Debit Card on your phone so you can pay for things using your phone, instead of your actual card. Load your debit card into the wallet app on your phone then simply place your phone over or near the terminal/reader at your favorite business and you can pay instantly.
This is a secure way to use your Debit Card. Your card number is not stored on your phone/device and, with each transaction, a unique code is used instead of your debit card number to protect your information.
It is a quick, easy, safe way to use your Debit Card without actually getting your card out of your wallet!
