From accessing massive amounts of information on the internet to simply experiencing an enriched personal lifestyle, technology continues to benefit us day in, day out. It is undoubtedly true that technology is an important part of our daily lives.
Nowadays, most people have computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones. These devices have made communication and our lives in general, easier. Nowadays, you can shop, transfer money to friends and families from anywhere, anytime. Let’s accept that e-wallet technology has made life a little bit more simple. And when these wallets are used correctly they can be very safe for your money. Digital wallets were designed to
But with technology rapidly growing and developing there is always a risk with storing your information online and it’s up to all the businesses with a digital presence to ensure that all their users’ details are safely stored.
Are digital wallets safe?
The short answer is yes. Digital wallets are safer than physical wallets. Today many stores accept digital wallets. It is not so easy to steal your digital wallet. Most digital wallets are protected with high security measures such as tokenization or biometric authentication. It is easier to track the activity in digital wallets, when there is a suspicious activity on your wallet your payment provider sends you notifications. However this is not possible for your physical wallet. If you get robbed you can lose not only your money but also all your credit cards or even IDs. And have to cancel and reapply for all of your cards and IDs.
Today many popular technology brands such as Apple Inc., Google LLC, offer e-wallet services. And Jeton is one of them. We guarantee that once you set up your account and start using your e-wallet, you won’t ever go back to your physical wallet.
So How Does Jeton Protect Your Data And Money?
At Jeton, we keep your money secure using the most advanced security measures available, complying with the strict Payment Card Industry and Data Security Standards (PCI and DSS). We have made our online security even safer with our 2-step verification process, meaning hackers wouldn’t be able to access your account even if they had your email address and password!
Ever wondered what ‘100% secure’ means for you? We’ve got you covered. Jeton constantly works on aligning with new technologies for its users.
What Is Jeton’s 2-Step Verification?
The idea behind 2-Step Verification is to combine “something you know” (like your password) with “something you have” (like your phone) to add an extra layer of security to your account. Once this feature is enabled on your account, anyone wishing to access your wallet will only be allowed once they’ve provided your email address or username, password and the most updated code available only on your smartphone. This enhanced layer of security means that all the money stored in your account remains safe and secure even if someone gets a hold of your email address or username and password. Setting up the 2-Step Verification is easy and would take you no more than a few minutes.
Never Give Your Password to Anyone
Please bear in mind that a reliable bank or payment provider never directly asks you to provide your personal information, especially via email or on the phone. Likewise we will never ask for your password and no other services should either. This type of information is being asked generally by scammers. So be aware that if you are being asked for your password, please notify us immediately by emailing [email protected] so we can investigate further.
We also recommend you not to access your account through public internet connection or public wifi. If you are not using your own internet network, try to use a VPN or your mobile data. VPN will mask your IP so it is a good way to keep your personal data safe.
Biometric Authentication
You might be familiar with biometric authentication as it has been implemented to smart phones in recent years. In simple words it is a step towards linking digital identity and payment systems. It can be a finger print or face ID scanning. Biometrics are unique to every person and provide a very secure safety layer. It is the fastest way to access your accounts. Jeton has implemented biometric authentication so you can access your Jeton account with peace of mind.
Download the Jeton app to your smart phone or your tablet, if your account is already verified you can set up this feature within your account. Scan your face or finger print by following the instructions.
How We Protect Your Money?
Advanced security is very important for our clients and partners. We pride ourselves on being fully compliant with the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI) and offering excellent online payment security to our clients.
As a reliable payment solution provider, we are required to “safeguard” the money that we receive from customers like you. So, any money we receive from customers is placed in a dedicated client money bank account we hold with a large global bank.
Safeguarding helps protect you because it means that, if we were to become insolvent, our customers’ claims against us would be paid out from our dedicated client money bank accounts before anyone else’s claims against us are paid out.
As we are an electronic money institution and not a bank, your money is not covered by the Financial Services Compensation Scheme. That’s because it’s safeguarded instead.
Our obligations to “safeguard” your money end when you have spent it and it has been paid out on your behalf. Jeton, as one of the leading payment providers, offers e-wallet services to its customers equipped with all necessary safety measures. We highly recommend you to set all our security measures that Jeton offers such as biometric authentication and 2-step verification.
