It’s nt s lng ag that cntactless card payments were exciting and new,but the technlgy is already ld-hat.The new,better way t pay fr things in shps?By using yur phne t make a cntactless payment.
Because traditinally,when yu have paid with a card tap (輕敲) r using a chip and pin machine,ultimately the shp yu are buying frm will be nting dwn all f yur card details. 1 And this culd be a prblem—it means that if the shp is hacked (侵入) r plays fast and lse with its data,yu culd find yur card number expsed t the wrld.
Hwever,when yu tap t pay with yur device,it generates a unique ID number fr that deal and sends that instead.S yu can pay fr yur gds and the shp can get yur mney. 2 That is t say,phne payments are smarter.
3 If a pickpcket steals yur card they can immediately use up the mney.But if they get yur phne,when the phne ges t pay it will typically perfrm a bimetric check—it will ask fr a finger-print r use the camera t lk at yur face,t check that yu are wh yu say yu are.
4 Because f this added security,the limit is typically higher than fr cntactless cards.In the UK,it’s arund £100 fr mst retailers—thugh sme shps including mst supermarkets let yu spend much mre with just a tap f the phne.
Want t give it a try?T actually set things up,g t yur Wallet app and fllw the instructins. 5 Then it will autmatically recgnise the numbers and cnnect with yur bank.Usually yu receive a text message with a special cde n it.And then,well,yu’re dne.When yu pay,hld yur phne ver the payment machine,and pay fr yur gds!
A.It helps t build the client list.
B.The setup prcess varies with banks.
C.N ne needs t share any sensitive data.
D.It’s als mre effective against the threat f thefts.
E.And phne payments are increasingly cnvenient t.
F.Typically this starts by scanning yur card with yur phne.
G.Therefre,it knws which bank accunt t take the mney frm.
