Paze is a convenient way to check out online offered by participating banks and credit unions -- including Bank of America, Capital One, Chase, PNC Bank, Truist, US Bank, and Wells Fargo -- that requires no manual entry of card information, no third-party app, and no Paze username or password to remember. With more than 40 million members, Sephora’s Beauty Insider Loyalty program is a free rewards program in the United States and Canada that allows customers to earn points on all merchandise purchases and redeem those points for rewards.

“At Sephora, we continue to put our customers at the center of our business and seek out innovative ways for them to shop and enjoy their favorite beauty products,” said Stefan Jensen, vice president, treasurer, Sephora. “Our focus has always been on providing a seamless shopping experience, and we’re excited to offer Paze to our most loyal shoppers. Through our integration of Paze, Beauty Insider members will have even more flexibility, along with a convenient way, to check out online.”

Developed and operated by Early Warning Services, Paze combines a consumer’s eligible debit and credit cards in a single digital wallet to enable shoppers to make purchases online without entering their card information. There are no third-party Paze apps to download or Paze passwords to remember. Transactions are tokenized, bringing added security to checkout because the actual card number is not shared with merchants. And because it’s offered by a customer’s bank or credit union, they can feel confident using it to check out online.

Additional benefits of Paze for consumers include:

· Convenience: Paze combines a consumer’s eligible debit and credit cards from participating banks and credit unions into one wallet. Customers can access all their eligible cards in one place and make online purchases without manually entering their card numbers at checkout. After activation, shoppers can check out quickly.

· Added security: Through tokenization, all card account numbers are replaced with a unique number so card numbers are not shared with merchants at checkout.

· Confidence: Paze is offered by participating banks or credit unions consumers already know, so shoppers can feel confident using it to check out online.

“Sephora continues to embrace innovation in payments, and Paze provides their Beauty Insider members an even better online checkout experience,” said Catherine Murchie, head of operations, Paze. “This collaboration marks a significant milestone in enhancing the customer experience, providing Sephora shoppers with a seamless and efficient way to complete their purchases.”

Paze will be available nationally later in 2024 through participating banks and credit unions.
