Fast, Secure Payments with Mobile Wallet

Make everyday purchases faster, safer, and more convenient by adding your Forward Bank debit card to a mobile wallet like Apple Pay, Google Pay, or Samsung Pay. A mobile wallet securely stores your debit card on your smartphone, smartwatch, or tablet — letting you pay with a simple tap anywhere contactless payments are accepted, including gas stations, grocery stores, coffee shops, retail locations, and even for online or in-app purchases.

Why Use a Mobile Wallet?

Using a mobile wallet is more than just convenient — it’s a smart and secure way to pay:

  • Convenient: Leave your wallet at home and pay using your mobile device with just a tap.
  • Secure: Each transaction uses a unique, device-specific account number and encryption. Your actual card number is never shared with merchants.
  • Easy: Just hold your device near the terminal wherever you see the contactless symbol to make a fast, secure payment.

You can add your debit card in minutes by opening your mobile wallet app, tapping “Add Card,” and following the prompts — it’s quick, secure, and free.
