Peoria, IL – CEFCU is pleased to announce that members now have the ability to access Samsung Pay — the most accepted mobile payment system that works at the majority of merchants.  Any CEFCU Debit Mastercard® or Credit Mastercard, may be used with Samsung Pay.  Cardholders will enroll in Samsung Pay directly on their Samsung Galaxy S6 edge+, Note-5, S6 edge, S6 or S6 active device.

Samsung Pay is simple, safe, and works almost anywhere you can swipe or tap your card. Samsung uses tokenization, Samsung KNOX, and fingerprint authentication to provide secure payments. Samsung Pay is compatible with most existing and new terminals, including most magnetic stripe, EMV (chip), and NFC terminals. Users simply swipe, scan their fingerprint, and pay.

“CEFCU is excited to be able to add Samsung Pay to our lineup of digital wallets,” said Denise Ghere, CEFCU Vice President.
