Contactless is the latest payment technology. It allows you to pay for purchases to a maximum value of £100 without having to key your PIN. You pay for your goods with a simple touch of your card. You stay in control as your card never leaves your hands.

Contactless is automatically activated on your debit card once you have completed your first Chip and PIN transaction at either a Point of Sale (POS) or at an ATM.

Yes. Wherever you see the Contactless symbol you can use your card. Please note the maximum value per transaction can vary from country to country. In the UK, the maximum value per contactless transaction is £100.

You can make Contactless payments wherever you see the Contactless symbol. Please note that some retailers will have a contactless terminal however this is may not always enabled.

Retailers need to enter the amount for you to check before the payment is made. So to duplicate a transaction, you would need to be asked to pay twice.

You may not be aware that from 15 October 2021, you can change your own contactless transaction limit!

Your card will have a default limit of £100. You can change this through our Mobile Bank app, by calling us, or by visiting any branch.

To do this on the Mobile Bank app, log on and navigate to the ‘Cards’ tab along the top. Select the card you’d like to change the limit for then select Card settings from the menu.
