Contactless payments
If there is a Contactless symbol located on the front of your card, then your card is enabled for Contactless payments.
Contactless and Mobile Payments - Make easy and secure payments in seconds
For debit and credit cards with the contactless symbol, the contactless limit is £100. Simply touch and pay for items that cost £100 or less with your card. Every now and then we’ll ask you to insert your card and do a Chip and PIN transaction instead as an extra security check.

Simply touch and pay for items that cost £100 or less with your card or device. For items over £100 you can pay using your device depending on the retailer.
