PIN’s the only way to pay

Contactless technology is a fast way to pay, with no PIN or signature required for purchases under $100.

For enabled cards to make a contactless payment, simply hold your contactless card against the terminal wherever you see the contactless symbol or your card logo.

For transactions of $100 or greater you’ll be asked to enter your PIN or sign (where available), but we recommend that you use your PIN.

We issue 4 digit PIN numbers on our cards. You can choose to have a PIN number with more than 4 digits; however some countries and industries only accept 4 digit PIN numbers. If you have a longer PIN, some of your transactions may not be successful.

Much like choosing a computer password, you should keep your PIN a secret. You should avoid using a PIN that contains repeating characters (like 9999) or digits in sequence (like 1234), or numbers that represent publically researchable information, such as your birthday, year of birth, names or family names, or address.
