Contactless Payments
The new way to pay is here!
With Wave and Pay contactless payments.
Now, it’s no problem if your customers don’t have enough cash on them for their morning coffee,sandwich,drink,magazine or a newspaper. For them or for you. Because the lightning quick, "Contactless"card payment technology is here. It’s called Wave and Pay, and it means that your customers can normally pay you in less than a second, completely securely, for anything that costs £10 and under. So you can say goodbye to long queues and they can say goodbye to standing in them.
So how does it work?
• Any debit or credit card with the Wave and Pay symbol (See step 1) can be used to make contactless payments for goods of £10 and under.
• The cardholder simply touches their card to the reader and the payment is made
• The Contactless payment transaction is processed through the same secure network as chip and pin
• The whole transaction is complete in under a second
It’s estimated that over 6 million contactless payment cards will be in circulation in early 2009.
All Debit cards issued by Barclays from March 2009 will have the contactless payment chip.
