It is likely that your contactless card is not yet enabled for contactless payments. Contactless payments require that you have a card with a contactless chip, and that the chip has been enabled with your bank. To enable contactless payments, contact your bank to ask them to enable your contactless card. Additionally, if you are using a card from a different bank, make sure that the bank supports contactless payments.

How do I activate contactless on a new card?

To activate contactless on a new card, you will need to do the following:
1. Visit the card issuer’s website and follow the instructions to activate the card.
2. If your card issuer offers a contactless activation option, select it.
3. Enter your card details and any additional security information.
4. Confirm your contactless activation.
Once you have completed the activation process, your card should be ready to use for contactless payments.

Does contactless work on new card?
