Apple Pay now available to Suncorp customers

Offering an Easy, Secure & Private Way to Pay

Suncorp today brings its customers Apple Pay, which is transforming mobile payments with an easy, secure and private way to pay that's fast and convenient.

Suncorp's Chief Executive Officer Customer Marketplace, Pip Marlow, said the introduction of Apple Pay is highly anticipated and expected to be well received by customers.

"As our customers look for security, speed and convenience, our mobile banking and payment options are incredibly important and offer the easiest way to pay," Ms Marlow said.

"We want to make it effortless for customers and have responded to their calls to improve our digital payment offering. The availability of Apple Pay means that our customers have access to faster and more secure payment methods. Apple Pay will give potential customers another good reason to consider Suncorp for their everyday money needs."

Security and privacy is at the core of Apple Pay. When you use a credit or debit card with 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 authorised with a one-time unique dynamic security code.

"Our customers are quick to embrace Suncorp's banking and insurance digital features and enhancements, and we think they'll love the ease of Apple Pay," Ms Marlow said.

Apple Pay works with iPhone SE, iPhone 6 and later, and Apple Watch.

Apple Pay is easy to set up and users will benefit from convenient point of sale and online payment services.

Online shopping in apps and on websites accepting Apple Pay is simple with Touch ID, or just double-click the side button and glance at your iPhone Xto authenticate with Face ID. There's no need to manually fill out lengthy account forms or repeatedly type in shipping and billing information with Apple Pay. When paying for goods and services on the go in apps or Safari, Apple Pay works with iPhone 6 and later, iPhone SE, iPad Pro, iPad (5th Generation), iPad Air 2, and iPad mini 3 and later.

You can also use Apple Pay in Safari on any Mac introduced in or after 2012 running macOS Sierra and confirm the payment with iPhone 6 or later or Apple Watch, or with Touch ID on the new MacBook Pro.
