Regions Bank Introduces A New Way To Pay
I have some really fun information to share with you today! I don’t know about you, but I can’t live without my cell phone. Well, I guess they really aren’t just cellphones anymore…they are our calendars, our music player, our alarm clocks, our personal weather channel, our social media connection at all times, and our wallets.
What? Our wallets?
You haven’t heard? That’s right, you can now use your PHONE as your wallet! And Regions Bank is making it easier than ever, and just in time for the holiday season. Regions is always looking for ways to make our lives easier and introduce new and innovative ways to bank, and they have done it!
What has Regions Bank done to improve our banking experience?
They have mobile apps, mobile web and text banking options.
Regions now brings us the convenience and security of tap and go technology with Apple Pay® and Android Pay™. WOOHOO!
Regions also offers Visa Checkout, which is the fast and convenient way to make your online purchases this holiday season. Thank you!
The holiday season is busy enough, so why not let mobile payments add simplicity, convenience, and security to shopping? I know I am all about anything that will make my life a bit easier.
Explain these Regions Payment Solutions….
I would be more than happy to!
What is Visa Checkout?
Visa Checkout–A simple way to check out.
Visa Checkout allows customers to make quick purchases at participating merchants, eliminating the need to type in your card number and address each time you checkout when making online purchases.
Spend less time filling out forms when you shop. Enroll in Visa Checkout at visa.com and enter the information for the card(s) you want to use. On a compatible smartphone, tablet, laptop or desktop, Visa Checkout works with your existing debit or credit cards and internet-connected devices. So, shopping stays convenient and paying online gets even easier.
Benefit of this digital service is to provide:
Fast and easy checkout – one-click online purchases.
You are still eligible for your existing cards point programs.
Visa Checkout is a simple, fast and convenient way to checkout with your online purchases this holiday season.
You can use it with any online vendor that accepts Visa Checkout— on the go with your tablet or smartphone, or at home with your computer
Checking out online is now simpler and faster
Even though it is a Visa product, a user can add other non-Visa branded credit or debit cards.
What is Apple Pay®?
Apple Pay® allows you to store your Regions cards on a variety of Apple products (iPhone 6® or iPhone 6 Plus® and later, Apple Watch® paired with iPhone®, iPad Pro®, iPad Air 2®, iPad mini 3®, iPad mini 4® and later).
It’s fast and convenient in stores because you can now make purchases with just a touch of your Apple Pay®-enabled mobile device.
Greater simplicity – It’s easy to set up and use.
Greater convenience – Pay on the go at participating merchants who accept contactless Visa® payments — just look for the contactless symbol or Apple Pay® icons at checkout.
Greater security – Your card number is not being shared with the merchant.
How it works:
Add your Regions card to Apple Pay® using your Wallet app.
At the cash register or checkout, use your fingerprint recognition or Touch ID on your iPhone® by placing it near the merchant’s card reader to authorize your payment.
You may also use Apple Pay® to pay online with your fingerprint in many merchant apps with your compatible Apple®
Apple Pay® lets you use iPhone® or Apple Watch® to pay in over a million stores accepting contactless payments.
Look for the Apple Pay® mark or contactless symbol at the checkout counter.

Simplicity – It’s easy to set up and use.
Convenience – Pay on the go at participating merchants who accept contactless Visa® payments — just look for the contactless symbol or Android Pay™ icons at checkout.
