How to set up my card with Apple Pay, Android Pay, or Samsung Pay?
You can connect your Fortis Edge Capital credit and debit card to Apple Pay®, Samsung Pay®, or Android Pay®. Using a digital wallet is even easier than plastic—your information is transmitted when you hold your device in front of the retailer's check-out device, or contactless reader, wherever the Apple Pay, Android Pay, and Samsung Pay symbols are displayed.
It takes just a few easy steps. Depending on your smartphone, it's either part of the package or you'll have to download the app, then input the information requested and follow a few instructions.
Concerned about security? Using your cell phone in place of a card has built in security measures:
- You don't need to share account information when you're shopping, which lessens the opportunity for compromised accounts.
- The card number you enter into the app isn't stored in the app, on the device, or on Pay servers. Your account information is replaced with a unique-to-you digital account to reduce fraud. If you lose your device, you don't need to cancel your account; only the digital information will need updating.
- You have an extra layer of protection if you've secured your device with a log in code or fingerprint recognition.
When you finish adding your debit or credit card information to the app, you may be asked to complete an authentication process. If so, call the number displayed on your device. We're here to help get you set up between 8 a.m. and 6 p.m. Monday – Friday, and 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. on Saturdays.
