    How to block contactless payments on my card?

    Currently only available for iOS users on the mobile app.

    Contactless payments are really practical. But you might prefer to deactivate this payment method to prevent unauthorised transactions on your card. This is why you can now deactivate contactless payments on your card specifically:

    1. Go to Cards. 
    2. If you have multiple cards, swipe to the right until you see the card you want.
    3. Tap Card settings.
    4. Toggle Contactless payments.

    The changes you make are applied instantly to the card you’ve chosen. Keep in mind that these settings refer to your physical card. You can read our dedicated articles to manage your Google Pay and Apple Pay settings. If you’re experiencing difficulties with contactless card payments, please read the following article to learn how to make them work.
