SUMMER 2022: Digital Wallets for ViaCU Debit & Credit Cardholders
Securely store your ViaCU cards in your phone's digital wallet for quick checkouts when shopping in store or online. Making purchases easy, convenient and secure!
Paying with a digital wallet is safer than providing a retailer with your card number and PIN. With digital wallets, transactions are validated by a number that is unique to each device and card. This encrypted number is used to authorize purchases so your card number and PIN are never transferred or stored with the merchant, meaning they are less likely to be compromised.
Many smartphones offer fingerprint Touch ID or Face Recognition that can be used to authorize transactions. This means your digital wallet is available at the touch of your fingertips. There is no need to show additional ID, sign, or wait for the chip reader to complete the transaction.
Digital wallets that will be available include:
- Google Pay™
- Apple Pay®
- Samsung Pay™
- FitBit Pay™
- Garmin Pay™
