The convenience, simplicity and security of Apple Pay are now available
to customers who use U.S. Bank FlexPerks American Express Cards.
“Enabling Apple Pay for our U.S. Bank FlexPerks American Express
Cardmembers continues our efforts to give customers choices in how they
manage payments, as well as providing them an easy, secure and private
way to pay,” said Cliff Cook, senior vice president for the U.S. Bank
retail credit-card division. “As one of the leaders in mobile payments,
we continue investing in innovation to better serve our customers today
and anticipate their needs for tomorrow.”
Apple Pay is now available with the:
-
U.S. Bank FlexPerks Reserve American Express Card.
-
U.S. Bank FlexPerks Travel Rewards American Express Card.
-
U.S. Bank FlexPerks Select+ American Express Card.
With this announcement, all U.S. Bank credit and debit cards (consumer
and small business) work with Apple Pay. With Apple Pay, card numbers
are not stored on the device; instead, a unique Device Account Number is
assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure Element. If the
device is lost or stolen, it’s easy to quickly suspend the device and
stop the ability to make purchases.
Apple Pay is easy to set up and users will continue to receive all of
the rewards and benefits offered by their U.S. Bank American Express
Card. In stores, Apple Pay works with iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone
6, iPhone 6 Plus and Apple Watch. When online shopping in apps,
accepting Apple Pay is as simple as the touch of a finger with Touch ID,
so there’s no need to manually fill out lengthy account forms or
repeatedly type in shipping and billing information. When paying for
goods and services within apps, Apple Pay is compatible with iPhone 6s,
iPhone 6s Plus, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPad Air 2, iPad mini 3, iPad
mini 4 and iPad Pro.
