Scam Alert: We are aware of scammers impersonating Citadel representatives by phone, text, and in-person visits. Citadel will never ask for your PIN or sensitive information, never instruct you to cut up your debit or credit card AND keep the chip intact, and never send anyone to your home to retrieve a card. If you receive a call, text, or visit claiming otherwise, it is a scam. Call 800-666-0191 immediately.

Is using Apple Pay secure?

Frequently Asked Question

Yes. Security and privacy are at the core of Apple Pay. When you add a credit or debit card to Apple Pay, the actual card numbers are not stored on the device or 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, instead of using the security code from the back of your card.
