What are contactless payments?

Contactless payments are transactions made by tapping either a contactless chip card or payment-enabled mobile or wearable device over a contactless-enabled payment terminal. Cards, phones, watches and other devices use the same contactless technology.

Contactless payments can both improve your checkout experience and may also increase customer satisfaction and help boost store loyalty. Because your business engages directly with customers at the point-of-sale and in your marketing and advertising, you play a critical role in helping create a positive contactless payment experience.

Visa Contactless Chip Cards

If your Visa card features the Contactless Indicator on either the front or back, you can use it to tap to pay where you see the Contactless Symbol at many of your favorite stores.

Devices

Don’t have a contactless chip card? You can still tap to pay by loading an eligible payment card into your payment-enabled phone or wearable device.

Benefits

Here’s how offering contactless payments can benefit your business.

A better customer experience

Tapping to pay allows your customers to checkout easily and to avoid touching surfaces – and it only takes seconds, helping you speed up payments.
