Further Information & Support

 

Apple Pay, Google Pay and Fitbit Pay

We are delighted to announce a significant enhancement to the Current Account service with the introduction of Apple Pay, Google Pay and Fitbit Pay.
The Current Account Debit Mastercard can now be added to Apple Pay, Google Pay and Fitbit Pay digital wallets, making it easier for members who prefer to use their mobile phone, Apple device and/or Fitbit watch to make Contactless payments. The use of digital wallet payments provides a safer more secure way to pay that removes the need to handle payment cards, touch physical buttons or exchange cash. It’s the modern way to pay, particularly given the times we live in. And with the Credit Union Current Account members can tap away in the knowledge that Contactless payments are free.
How to set up Google Pay and Fitbit Pay?
To set-up Apple Pay, Google Pay and/or Fitbit Pay, just download the app, enter your Debit Card details by scanning the card or entering the details manually, and submit a One Time Passcode. Use wherever Contactless payments are accepted. You simply hold your mobile phone and/or Fitbit device near a payment terminal to make a Contactless payment.
Please note: your device must have NFC (Near Field Communication) Technology.
