MasterCard contactless technology lets you make everyday purchases quickly and safely with just a tap of your contactless-enabled MasterCard® or Maestro® card or device—wherever you see the universal contactless symbol. So checkout is easier than ever, and its faster than fumbling with cash.
Contactless is accepted globally at all kinds of merchants, including retail stores, fast-food restaurants, pharmacies, transit points of entry, and grocery and convenience stores. Youll even find contactless in taxicabs and vending machines.
CONTACTLESS IS SAFE AND SECURE!
Encryption—unique to every purchase—protects your transaction data, and your card or device never leaves your hand, reducing the risk of card loss or counterfeit. Whats more, safeguards are in place to bill you only once if you accidentally tap twice. So your contactless-enabled credit, debit, or prepaid MasterCard card or device is one of the most secure ways to pay.
