Want to Know More? Here Are Some Frequently Asked Questions.

How do I know if I can tap to pay with my card?

Look for the Contactless Indicator on your card to know if you can use it to tap to pay for purchases.

How do I hold my contactless chip card to the contactless-enabled terminal?

The terminal reads the card best when it is flat over the Contactless Symbol, versus at an angle.

How long do I need to hold my contactless chip card to the contactless-enabled terminal?

You should hold your contactless chip card to the contactless-enabled terminal for 1-2 seconds.

Can I unknowingly make a purchase if I am in close proximity to a contactless-enabled terminal?

No. Contactless technology requires the merchant to first initiate the payment, and the contactless chip card must be held to the terminal for a transaction to take place.
