What is a Digital Wallet?
Paying with your smart device is gaining popularity at retail stores. Some call this contactless payments, others may refer to this as a Mobile or Digital Wallet. Either way, this is a digital form of your debit or credit card that you can use to make payments from your compatible smartphone, smartwatch or tablet. To pay, simply open your Mobile Wallet and hold your device near a store's POS terminal to send encrypted payment information to complete your purchase.
Are digital payments safe?

Why carry cash when you can PeoplePay?
PeoplePay is C&N's person-to-person payment feature that allows you to transfer funds to your family and friends in PA, NY and beyond straight from your C&N Online Banking or Mobile Banking App. There is no need to download a separate app and it's free* to use!
Digital Payment Flexibility
PeoplePay now has more financial institutions accept payment through PeoplePay, expanding your payment abilities. Your payee can choose to accept payments using their debit card or using a next-day electronic (ACH) option
Convenient Payment Processing
Your money will come out of your account as soon as your payee chooses how they want the funds to transfer. The funds will come out immediately if they choose debit card or overnight if they choose the ACH (electronic) option. Your payee will no longer be required to enter their debit card information with every payment. After choosing how they want the money to transfer the first time, all future payments will default to the same option until they choose a different method.
Payment Security
To make sure your payments are secure, the first time you enter a new payee, you will be asked to enter a one-time passcode before proceeding. If your payee does not pick a payment right away, they will receive notifications after 3 days and again after 5 days to cut down on missed payments. Additionally, to help further protect your account, transfers may only occur if you have sufficient funds in your account.
* You may be charged access rates depending on your mobile phone carrier. Check with your service provider for details.
** C&N will not be held responsible or make refunds for payments made for the exchange of goods or services that are unlawful or not delivered as expected. Only use PeoplePay with people you know and trust.

Bill payments are sent one of two ways—electronically or by paper checks. The majority of payments are delivered electronically. Your payment information, such as your account number, is sent via secure transmission. All other payments are made by paper checks that are mailed via the U.S. Postal Service.
Paying bills online is one of the safest ways to pay your bills. Online Bill Pay helps guard against identity theft from lost or stolen checkbooks, bills and statements. It also increases your privacy because only you can access your account information, account numbers and payment history. As a result, you maintain tighter control of your account with real time access to your payments activity.
Generally, your payment is received within 2 to 7 days, depending on whether or not it is sent electronically or via paper check.
Most scheduled payments are sent electronically and funds are withdrawn from your account on the process date.
