Southern California’s Kinecta Federal Credit Union today announced it will provide its members with MasterCard PayPass-enabled credit cards.
Kinecta members can now simply tap their credit cards on specially equipped merchant terminals to pay for items, without needing to sign or enter a PIN if the total is less than $50.
PayPass cards also include traditional magnetic strips so they can be used anywhere MasterCard is accepted.
The roll out begins this month, with Kinecta issuing PayPass cards to new MasterCard cardholders, as well as replacing existing members’ cards with the new technology.
