    FAQs

    • What are contactless payments?

      Contactless payments use short-range wireless technology to securely complete payments between a contactless-enabled card or payment-enabled device and a contactless-enabled terminal. A Visa® contactless card is a chip card that has a near field communication (NFC) antenna, which enables close-range payments. When cardholders tap to pay their contactless card at a contactless-enabled terminal (near the Contactless Symbol Contactless.png), their payment is sent for authorization.

    • What do the symbols mean?

      When shown on a card, the EMVCo Contactless Indicator*   means the card has the capability to make contactless payments. When shown at a merchant, it means they accept contactless payments. The EMVCo Contactless Symbol* Contactless.png shows the cardholder where to tap their contactless card or payment-enabled device on the checkout terminal to make a contactless payment.

    • Is tapping to pay safe?

      Yes. Visa® contactless cards are safe for a number of reasons:

      • Each transaction is accompanied by a one-time code that securely protects your payment information, just like with a chip card.
      • Cardholders can’t pay accidentally. Their card or device must be within 1-2 inches of the contactless-enabled terminal for the transaction to occur (and they won’t be billed twice, even if they accidentally tap twice).
    • What are the benefits of tapping to pay?

      Tapping to pay with a Visa® contactless card is fast and easy — perfect for places like fast-food restaurants, grocery stores, coffee shops, vending machines, taxis and more.

      Tapping to pay is also secure because just like a chip card, each transaction is accompanied by a one-time code that protects your payment information. Unlike cash, tapping to pay provides an electronic record of your purchases and gives you all the great functionality and convenience of a Visa® card.

    • Can people “skim” information off of a contactless card?

      For every contactless transaction, a unique transaction-specific code is created that secures the cardholder’s payment information. Due to the nature of the code and additional fraud protection processes, it is difficult to use skimmed cardholder information for fraudulent purchases.
