Digital Wallets
Connect your debit or credit card to your smartphone and quickly make payments in-store or online.
It's easy to turn your Google device into a mobile wallet. Follow these simple steps.
- Download the Google Pay app from the Google Play Store.
- Sign in with your Google account.
- Choose one of the available banking choices for setting up payment information. Your options include adding your Scient debit card, using carrier billing, or adding PayPal.
ADD YOUR SCIENT DEBIT CARD
- Touch the floating action button.
- Select “Add a debit card."
- Capture a picture of your card with your phone’s camera by placing your card within an onscreen frame. Make sure the numbers of your card line up with the placeholder numbers on the screen.
- Confirm the card’s CVC number and touch Save. You’ll be asked to agree to the card issuer terms.
- Google Pay will then verify the card with us. You'll need to select the option for receiving a code, such as via an email or text message.
Once verified, your card will be added to your available stack of cards within Google Pay. To make your Scient Debit Card your default payment option, tap the card and select "Set as Default Card."
Apple Pay is now the easy, secure and private way to make payments.
Use Apple Pay to pay in-store without swiping your cards and in-app without entering payment and contact information. A single touch of your finger using Touch ID confirms payment.
With Apple Pay, you don’t have to use your actual credit and debit card numbers. When you add your card, a unique Device Account Number is assigned, encrypted and securely stored. And when you make a purchase, the Device Account Number alongside a transaction-specific dynamic security code is used to process your payment.
Your actual credit or debit card numbers are never shared by Apple with merchants or transmitted with payment. In addition, paying with Apple Pay is private - the cashier never sees your name, card numbers or security code.
