What are contactless payments?
Contactless card payments and Apple & Android Pay are alternative ways for your customers to be able to pay using either their credit card or debit card. Instead of using cash or Chip and PIN technology, the customer can simply tap their contactless card to the card terminal, without needing to insert the card into the terminal or enter their 4-digit PIN. If they have an iPhone or Android Smartphone, they can setup their phones to be able to make Apple Pay and Android payments. This works like contactless but instead of needing a physical card, they would use their phone. With this technology, customers can pay quickly for small value items up to £30.
Contactless solutions, also known as ‘wave and pay’, is becoming increasingly popular in the UK. More and more customers are adopting to contactless cards, and it was reported by the UK Cards association that a total of 108.4 million contactless were in issue in the UK in April last year and 416.3 million contactless transactions made that same month.
How do contactless payments work?
Each contactless credit and debit card issued has their own individual chip which works by connecting to the card machine via ‘Radio Frequency Identification’ (RFID) technology. This means that when the customer is ready to pay, they don’t need to insert their card into the machine and enter their PIN. Instead, they present the card to the machine by holding it above the terminal screen, allowing the chip to send data to begin the transaction. For Apple Pay and Android Pay, instead of using the physical payment card, customers can instead use their iPhone or smartphone to make payment.
