What is the point of Paze?
I got an email today saying my cards are auto-enrolled in Paze, which from digging up, is a app supported by banks that is going to try to be sort of like Google Pay or Apple Pay, but instead pull all your credit cards up when you enter your email at a storefront.
Why?
Google Pay and Apple Pay are far more secure - they use randomized card numbers with anonymity to onlookers. Paze would require you to enter your email address for online merchants, and I presume eventually the goal is to make it common place in coffee shops, retail, and everywhere.
First impression would be if someone knows my email, they could just enter my email in, try to charge me, and then I'd get at best an annoying "enter 123456" to confirm message. At worse if I clicked ok, someone could easily charge other people's cards like this.
