Regions Bank customers can soon add their Regions Debit, Credit and Prepaid Now cards to Android Pay, the simple and secure way to pay with your Android phone.
Android Pay enables Android users to seamlessly tap and pay with their phones at more than 1 million stores across the US, with more locations being added every day, and to make those purchases easily and securely. Regions customers can use this new payment product to load an existing Regions card to Android Pay and use those cards to make purchases in stores that accept contactless payments.
Android Pay is supported by industry standard tokenization, which does not transmit actual credit or debit card numbers with a payment. Instead, a virtual account number is used to represent the customer’s account information—providing an improved layer of security. Additional security features also comprise payment confirmations and the Android Device Manager, which allows users to lock a device remotely, secure it with a new password or wipe it clean of personal information if the phone is ever stolen or lost.
