U.S. Bank offers Paze for cardholders and merchants

The company delivers the new online checkout solution to anyone looking to check out with Paze

All U.S. Bank clients with eligible credit and debit cards now have access to Paze℠, a new online checkout solution that makes online shopping more convenient. Paze is a streamlined checkout experience with no manual card entry, no new Paze password to remember* and no need to download third-party applications.

U.S. Bank is offering special promotions to cardholders to encourage them to use Paze. The company also offers a variety of options for businesses to easily accept Paze transactions through a seamless integration with Elavon's Converge Payment Gateway for e-commerce.

"Paze is a great example of how U.S. Bank is delivering innovative payment capabilities to our clients that are simple, convenient and easy to use," said Shailesh Kotwal, vice chair of Payment Services at U.S. Bank. "Making an online purchase without entering card data and trusting that the payment will process quickly is what clients expect, and what is delivered with Paze."

Paze provides cardholders with added security by tokenizing credit and debit card numbers, so the actual 16-digit card number is not shared with the online merchant. Eligible U.S. Bank clients can activate Paze by signing in through the U.S. Bank app, online at usbank.com or by checking out at a participating retailer's website.

To use Paze, online shoppers should look for the Paze button at the online checkout of participating merchants and follow the easy steps to complete their purchase.

Paze is a great addition to a business' e-commerce capabilities because there are no additional transaction fees for merchants to add Paze as a checkout option and it offers added security because the actual card number stays hidden.

"We're excited to work with a partner such as U.S. Bank, which through Elavon is helping us to provide our customers and our nationwide network of florists convenient and consumer-friendly checkout options, like Paze," said Matt Faulk, vice president of finance operations at Teleflora.
