How Do I Activate My Contactless Debit Card Effortlessly?

“Why is my debit card not working when I try to use contactless payment? There are several reasons why your contactless card might not function as expected. One common issue is that the merchant you’re attempting to make a contactless payment at may not have the appropriate card reader to support this payment method. Additionally, if you haven’t activated your card yet, it won’t work for contactless transactions. These are just a couple of the potential reasons, and there could be others. It’s essential to ensure your card is activated and that the merchant has the necessary technology in place to accept contactless payments.” [Last updated: October 28, 2021]

“Using contactless payments while traveling abroad is a convenient option for many. You can make contactless payments with your card in foreign countries as long as you see the contactless symbol and the Visa logo displayed by the retailers. This means you can enjoy the ease of tap-and-go payments not just at home, but also when exploring international destinations.”
