Apple Pay is Apple’s new, innovative payment technology that adds convenience and security to your payment methods. It offers swipe-free payment so your card never leaves your hands. Plus it never reveals your card number to the merchant, whether pay online or in-person.

When your card is added to your device, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored instead of your actual card number. When you make a purchase, instead of using your card number, Apple Pay uses the Device Account Number along with a transaction-specific dynamic security code to process your payment. For more great information, visit apple.com/apple-pay.

Your Nodaway Valley Bank debit cards (MasterCard) can also be used with Apple Pay. This includes the Care-free Card and Business Debit Cards.

Your Nodaway Valley Bank credit cards (Visa and American Express) cards can be used with Apple Pay. This include Business credit cards.

You can use Apple Pay to make payments in stores wherever contactless payments are accepted. Just look for the contactless and/or Apple Pay symbol at checkout.

You can also use Apple Pay in participating merchant apps. Look for the “Buy with Apple Pay” or “Apple Pay” button at checkout within the apps.

Once your card has been added, you can hold your device near the contactless reader. Then, place your finger on “Touch IDTM” and hold the iPhone near the reader until you see “Done” and a checkmark on your screen which indicates that your payment is complete.

If “Touch ID” doesn’t work, or you do not have it enabled, you will need to enter your device passcode.

Once your card is added to your device, look for the “Apple Pay” button at checkout. Simply tap the “Apple Pay” button and review your payment information and contact details to complete your purchase.

You will see “Done” and a checkmark on the screen when your payment is complete.
