Tap to pay debit cards now available

Contactless debit cards provide additional security from skimming devices and provide an easier way to pay at point of sale terminals.

Contactless cards have special computer chips in them. This enables you to ‘tap’ your card at any ATM or point of sale terminal with the contactless symbol. In addition to expediting your purchases, contactless cards help prevent fraud caused by skimming devices, creating additional security for you as a consumer.
