Tap and Scan QR Payments: Take 3 Seconds Before You Pay

Contactless card and QR payments make everyday transactions faster and more convenient. However, because the process is so quick, we can sometimes overlook the amount shown on the screen.

Make this 3 second habit part of your routine whenever you make a payment.

I) Check Before You Tap or Confirm

Before tapping your card or confirming a QR payment, take a quick look at the amount shown on the terminal or payment screen. Make sure the amount is correct.

II) Check Your Transaction Notification

After making a payment, check the notification on your phone or payment app to make sure the transaction went through and the amount is correct.

III) Keep Your Receipt If Needed

For higher value purchases, keep the physical or digital receipt as a reference in case you need to check the transaction later.

Fast is convenient. Checking is still important. Take a few seconds to check the amount so you can avoid accidentally paying more than you should. 💳✨
