safe and secure payments
Just like Chip & PIN payments, you'll enjoy the same fraud protection on contactless payments. So if your card is misused by someone without your permission, you won't be liable for losses*. To be extra careful, we'll occasionally ask you to enter your PIN to complete a payment.
* You will be liable if you and any additional cardholder negligently give or provide access to the card, account or PIN details which results in those details being used fraudulently.
Open for business
You can use contactless payments wherever you see the wave symbol. There are already over 50,000 retailers nationwide that offer contactless payments. They include places like EAT, Yo Sushi!, Prêt a Manger, Krispy Kreme and Little Chef, and more are coming. To find locations near you, visit the Visa website and the MasterCard website.
