Let’s set the scene. You’re currently at a register ready to check out. After repeatedly checking your bag and pockets, you realize you don’t have your wallet. Odds are you’ve encountered this situation numerous times. You mentally beat yourself up and swear next time you will remember it. With Mobile Wallet, those days are in the past!
What is Mobile Wallet?
A mobile wallet allows you to link your debit card to the wallet digitally stored on your mobile phone or smartwatch. Chelsea Groton Bank’s debit card can be added to your device’s mobile wallet to make secure purchases with Apple Pay®, Google Pay™ or Samsung Pay. Once your card is stored, you can hover your device above a card reader in the check-out line or by selecting it as the payment method for purchases made on your phone, and that’s it! Your payment is already being processed.
What are the benefits of a mobile wallet?
Convenience! If you have your phone on you then you have your wallet. Gone are the days of the panicked pat-downs as you search your person looking for your money. In addition to the convenience, mobile wallets have increased security. They use encryption, tokenization, and biometric authentication. Through these security measures, your actual card number is never used, and sensitive information remains safe.
