SAN FRANCISCO—Wells Fargo has announced Pay with Wells Fargo, which will bring to the app’s home screen an option for customers to select their most commonly used payment features like
Zelle, mobile wallets, Card-Free ATM Access Code and transfers, even before signing into the app.
“Pay with Wells Fargo is the first phase of a longer-term reinvention of Wells Fargo’s mobile banking experience, aimed at meeting all of our customers’ financial needs in a simple, easy-to-use, and customer-driven mobile experience,” the company stated in a release.
From the new screen, customers can more simply select the feature they want to use and authenticate to immediately send payments, transfer money, or make a purchase with a digital wallet. In a future enhancement, Wells Fargo plans to launch a feature where customers also will be able to donate money to their favorite charities and non-profits directly from the mobile experience. Pay with Wells Fargo will be piloted with Wells Fargo team members next month and piloted with customers later this year, the bank said.
“Pay with Wells Fargo is another step in our journey to transform how we serve customers and provide them with tools that make their financial lives easier and simpler, and put them in better control of their finances,” said Avid Modjtabai, head of payments, virtual solutions and innovation for Wells Fargo. “The enhancements we are making in mobile are an example of how Wells Fargo is innovating based on customer needs and feedback about how they want to manage their money.”
