Carson Bank offers Contactless MasterCard® Debit Cards. What is a Contactless Chip Debit Card? A Contactless Card, also known as tap, to pay, is a Debit Card which enables close-range transactions.

Contactless Debit Cards give you the ability to check out quick and easy with the tap and go. You will also avoid touching surfaces and it only takes seconds, which is quicker than swiping or inserting a chip card. The card also provides the advanced encryption which provides additional security. How do I pay with my Contacless Card? Even though they are referred to as “tap and go” it works best when your Contactless Chip Card is held flat over the Contactless-enabled card reader within one or two inches of the Contactless symbol. Once the transaction is approved you will receive confirmation, usually a beep, green light, or check mark. Depending on the merchant, you may be asked to sign for the purchase or to enter your PIN. Can I use my Contactless Card on payment readers that do not display the Contactless logo? If the store does not have a Contactless reader, you can still use your Contactless Card by swiping or inserting your card. Are Contactless transactions secure? Yes. Contactless payments provide secure encryption technology, generating a transaction-specific, one-time code, that is extremely effective in reducing counterfeit fraud. The code is different than the code encoded on the magnetic stripe and only provides this enhanced security if it is inserted or tapped at the enabled terminal.

Apple Pay/Google Pay What does the setup process involve for Apple Pay? The cardholder can add their card in a few easy steps. Open Wallet and tap the plus sign. Position your card in the camera frame to automatically enter your card information. Enter the security code found on the back of your card, and fill in any remaining fields. You may also be prompted to call in and verify your identity. In the event you are prompted to call to verify your identity, you may be asked to provide information such as name, date of birth, last four digits of your Social Security Number, addresses, and to answer several Out of Wallet security questions. How does Apple Pay secure the transaction? With Apple Pay, instead of using your actual debit card number when you add your card, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted, and securely stored in the Secure Element, a dedicated chip in iPhone or iPad. When you make a purchase, the Device Account Number, along with a transaction-specific dynamic security code, is used to process your payment. So your actual debit card number is never shared by Apple with merchants or transmitted with payment. And unlike credit cards, on iPhone and iPad every payment requires Touch ID or a passcode— so only you can make payments from your device. How does Google Pay secure the transaction? Google Pay uses a security provision and utilizes the Cloud to secure token services. Google Pay does not store the account or card numbers on the device, instead they use a token code for transactions. Each time a purchase is made, the Google Pay handset sends two pieces of data to the payment terminal. The first is a 16-digit token that represents the debit card number, while the second piece is a one-time code or cryptogram that’s generated by the phone’s encryption key. What if the cardholder loses their Samsung phone? Google Payments can’t be made from your phone without being authorized via fingerprint or the PIN chosen during the setup process. If they register with Samsung’s Find My Mobile service, they can remotely erase information on the phone, including any cards stored in Google Pay. What does the setup process involve for Google Pay? Add your card issuer to Google Pay device in five easy steps: In the Google Pay app on their device, touch the + 0sign to add a credit or debit card to pay using the phone device. Position the credit/debit card in the camera frame to automatically enter the card information. Enter the security code found on their card and provide additional information as required. Accept the terms of service and set their screen lock. (Activating Device Administrator is part of the Google Pay setup process.) If requested, follow any additional steps to verify their card. What if the cardholder loses their Android phone? If their Android device becomes lost or stolen they can use Android Device Administrator to lock it remotely, create a new password, and wipe their personal information from it. We also recommend they notify their mobile carrier and promptly call the customer service number on the back of their card. They should mention they added their card to Google Pay, so the card issuer can disable the card for use with Google Pay. If they locate their device, they will need to add their card back to Google Pay before making any Google Pay purchases.
