Contactless payments are a simple, safer and secure way to pay using your People’s Choice Visa card. A simple tap of your phone, smartwatch or card at the checkout is all you need to do to pay.

All you need to pay by contactless is your People’s Choice Visa card. You can use the card itself, or if you like you can set up a digital wallet which means you’ll be able to use a device, like your phone or smartwatch to pay.

You can pay using contactless at any terminal that have the contactless symbol displayed.

Yes, it’s perfectly safe. You’re covered by Visa’s Zero Liability policy so you won’t be held responsible for fraudulent charges or unauthorised purchases.
