We’re excited to introduce a new feature to your debit card experience: contactless payments! With your new contactless debit card, you can enjoy a faster, safer, and more convenient way to pay—anytime, anywhere.

What is a Contactless Debit Card?

A contactless debit card uses secure Near Field Communication (NFC) technology to let you make payments by simply tapping your card on a compatible payment terminal. No need to swipe, insert, or fumble with cash—just tap and go! Look for the contactless symbol at checkout to see where you can use your card.

Why Choose Contactless?

1. Speed and Convenience: Make transactions in seconds with a simple tap. Whether you’re grabbing coffee, shopping for groceries, or fueling up your car, contactless payments save you time.

2. Enhanced Security: Contactless cards use advanced encryption technology to protect your information. Plus, because your card never leaves your hand, there’s less risk of it being lost or misused.

3. Hygienic Payment Option: In today’s world, reducing physical contact is more important than ever. Contactless payments allow you to avoid touching payment terminals or exchanging cash.

How to Use Your Contactless Debit Card

Using your new AltaOne contactless debit card is as easy as 1-2-3:

1. Look: Find the contactless symbol on the payment terminal.

2. Tap: Hold your card near the symbol for a moment.

3. Go: Once you see the confirmation, your payment is complete!

If a merchant doesn’t yet support contactless payments, don’t worry—you can still insert or swipe your card as usual.

• ATMs
