Bank of the Sierra is standing by to help. Just call the number on the back of your card.
Your credit and debit card number is assigned a unique virtual account number that’s used at checkout, so your full card details are not shared with the store when you pay. Think of it as a digital stand-in for your payment information.
You’ll need your virtual account number if you would like to make a return on an item purchased with Google Pay.
To view the last four or five digits of your virtual account number go to “Card details” or “Transaction details” within the Google Pay app menu. Or hold your device near the contactless terminal and select the card you used to make the purchase.
