How many times can you use contactless in a day?
How many times can you use contactless in a day? There's no limit on how many contactless payments you can make in a day. However, from time to time, your provider may ask you to re enter your PIN manually. This is done to verify your identity and prevent fraud.
Can I still use contactless if my PIN is locked?
If your PIN is locked, contactless will only work for a certain number of transactions. To get it working again, you'll need to unlock your PIN and then make a payment using your card with the PIN.
What happens if you tap in with one card and tap out with another?
What happens if I touch in with one contactless card, and touch out with another on the same journey? It's important that you try to avoid doing this, as you'll be charged a maximum fare on both of your cards.
Can you only use contactless so many times?
While contactless allows you to make payments without a PIN, it doesn't mean you can forget it entirely. Card issuers only allow five consecutive contactless transactions that can be made before a PIN is requested in order to prevent fraud.
Can you use contactless twice on tube?
No, you can only pay for one person per journey with a single contactless card, just like with an Oyster card. Find out more about TfL's contactless card service.
What happens if you forget to tap off?
Missed Tap Off Cost If you don't have a default set on your card and you forget to tap off at the end of your trip, you'll be charged the fare to the last stop on the train line or bus route and with your fare type and any applicable loyalty discounts applied.
