What is a digital wallet?
In simple terms, a digital wallet is an electronic version of your physical wallet you carry whether you’re in North Carolina or traveling elsewhere. It stores your payment information in an online account. When you are making a business purchase, you can use your mobile wallet from your mobile device to provide information instead of presenting the card each time.
Here is how it works. If you decide to add your business credit or debit card number to a mobile device or digital wallet, our card provider, Mastercard, will issue a “token” or digital account number behind the scenes. Then when you initiate transactions with a mobile device, this “token” or digital account number, not your business credit or debit card number, will be used to process the transaction, just like a traditional card transaction. Because the “token” doesn’t carry your business credit or debit card number, you are less likely to become a victim of fraudulent activity.
Ready to get started? Follow these three steps:
- Add your Piedmont Advantage Credit Union debit and/or credit card to your digital wallet app from your mobile device.
- In your digital wallet app, tap "Add Card."
- Choose the type of card to add, "Credit or Debit Card," and follow the simple steps to add your card. Since our cards are vertical, it is best to enter card details manually instead of positioning your card in the frame to add card.
Ways to Pay
Instead of swiping your card or inserting your card’s chip into a merchant’s terminal, you simply tap a terminal and go. “Tap and go” eliminates the wear and tear on your credit card due to excessive swiping and inserting of your card in merchant terminals. It also can be safer and more secure than swiping and inserting a chip. For example, "tap and go" reduces the chances of dishonest merchant employees stealing your card’s magnetic-strip through “skimming,” the practice of fraudulently procuring card data.
