Mobile Wallet Frequently Asked Questions
What is a digital wallet?
A digital wallet is just as it sounds – it’s your wallet but in a digital format so you can make payments without having your Alliance Bank Central Texas debit card with you physically. Digital wallets allow you to make a purchase in a store, in an app or even on a website with a participating merchant all with a compatible phone or wearable device.
What are the benefits of using a digital wallet?
There are many benefits to making purchases with your Alliance Bank Central Texas debit card using your digital wallet, including:
- Convenience – you don’t have to worry about having your card with you or pulling it out of your wallet or bag while making a purchase.
- Secure – During a transaction, the merchant receives a one-time password, or token, to complete the transaction. In this process, your card number is never provided and makes it nearly impossible for a fraudster to take your card information.
Are digital wallets safe?
Yes. Digital wallets utilize security features that are built into your device to protect your payment transactions. Additionally, you will be required to authenticate yourself before the transaction can be processed. Depending on your device type, the authentication step may be completed using your fingerprint, facial recognition, passcode or PIN. The digital wallet providers do not store or have access to your full account number as they are only provided a unique one-time passcode, known as a token, to provide to the merchant to complete the transaction. The last four digits of your card number is displayed on the card image within the wallet for the purpose of helping you manage your card(s).
