Just Tap & Go®

Use your contactless-enabled Mastercard or device wherever you see the universal contactless symbol for an easier checkout. It's even faster than fumbling with cash.

Contactless is accepted globally at merchants including retail stores, fast food restaurants, pharmacies, grocery and convenience stores and at transit locations. You’ll even find contactless in taxis and at vending machines.

How contactless works

Contactless payments are safe

Your card or device never leaves your hand and encryption — unique to every purchase — protects your data, reducing the risk of loss or counterfeit. What’s more, safeguards are in place to bill you only once if you accidentally tap twice.
