SECURE YOUR PALMPAY ACCOUNT

Secure your PalmPay Account.

Work through these protections one at a time. After making a change, verify that the protection is actually active.

Your PalmPay Account protects your money and financial activity.

That means protecting the account also means protecting your phone, SIM, PIN, OTPs, payment information and the decisions you make before approving transactions.

PalmPay says it uses multiple authentication layers, fraud monitoring, account and card controls, and 24/7 in-app incident reporting. Your own verification habits remain an important part of staying protected.
