TUPELO, Miss., Aug. 10, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Renasant
Corporation (NASDAQ: RNST) (the "Company") announced today that
MasterCard cardholders with a Renasant Bank MasterCard® Debit Card
now have access to faster, more secure everyday payments
through Apple Pay™. Renasant clients can pay wherever Apple Pay is
accepted and enjoy the added freedom of mobile payments and
enhanced payment security.
"We are excited to offer our clients the opportunity to use
Apple Pay with their Renasant Bank MasterCard Debit Card," said
John Oxford, Director of Corporate
Communication and External Affairs for Renasant. "Adding
Apple Pay to our retail banking product line is further evidence of
our continued commitment to mobile and online banking technology
and meeting the digital banking needs of our clients."
Not only are payments quicker with Renasant Bank MasterCard®
Debit Card and Apple Pay, they are more secure. When you add your
card to Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the
device, nor on Apple servers. Instead, a unique Device Account
Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored in the Secure
Element on your device. Each transaction is authorized with a
one-time unique dynamic security code. And, if a device is
lost or stolen, you can use Find My iPhone to quickly put it in
Lost Mode to suspend Apple Pay, or you can wipe your device clean
completely or stop the ability to make payments on
iCloud.com.
Apple Pay is easy to set up and users will continue to receive
all of the rewards and benefits offered by credit and debit
cards. In stores, Apple Pay works with iPhone® 6, iPhone®
6 Plus and Apple Watch™. When paying for goods and services within
apps, Apple Pay is compatible with iPhone® 6, iPhone® 6 Plus, iPad
Air® 2 and iPad Mini™ 3.
