Benefits of Contactless Payments
- They’re fast. Pay in seconds where you see the Contactless Symbol – much faster than searching for cash.
- They’re easy. No need to insert your card or swipe it. A simple tap on the contactless-enabled terminal is all it takes.
- They’re secure. Contactless cards use the same trusted security as chip cards to protect your payment information.
These cards are not only contactless but also have a new look, with vertical designs that include the Contactless Indicator!
Use your Lake City Bank Visa contactless card where you see the Contactless Symbol – at retail and grocery stores, coffee shops, fast food restaurants, pharmacies, and more!
- How do I know if I can tap to pay with my card?
- Look for the Contactless Indicator on your card to know if you can use it to tap to pay for purchases.
- Do I actually have to tap my contactless card on the terminal?
- No, but the card should be within one to two inches of the Contactless Symbol on the terminal.
- How do I hold my contactless card over the contactless-enabled terminal?
- The terminal reads the card best when it is flat over the Contactless Symbol, versus at an angle.
- How long do I need to hold my card over the terminal?
- You should hold your card over the terminal for one to two seconds.
- Can I unknowingly make a purchase if I am in close proximity to a contactless-enabled terminal?
- No. Contactless technology requires the merchant to initiate the payment, and the card must be held one to two inches from the terminal for a transaction to take place.
