Developments in technology and ease of use contribute to the growing popularity of contactless payments in all their forms. What does it mean for banks?

Over 50% of Gen-Z and baby boomers prefer contactless payments over any other payment method. As a result of preference shifting across all age sectors, issuing banks started to launch contactless cards.However, consumer demand and competition from digital wallets such as Alipay or Google Pay have heated up the competition in contactless payments availability across regions.

Smartphones turning into payment terminals
Technology giants like Apple will soon allow their gadgets to accept payments.

On-demand economy
Contactless payments are slowly becoming part of the ‘on-demand economy’. They allow users to connect a card to an app once and then make unscheduled recurring payments.

Banking competition
Banks must adapt to the rising customer demand for contactless payments. If not, they stand to lose clients to more agile competitors.

I didn't receive an e-mail

Tip: Check your spam

Sometimes our e-mails end up in spam. Make sure to check your spam folder for e-mails from The Payments Association

Tip: Check “other” tabs

Most modern e-mail clients now separate e-mails into different tabs. For example, Outlook has an “Other” tab, and Gmail has tabs for different types of e-mails, such as promotional.

Tip: Click the link within 60 minutes

For security reasons the link will expire after 60 minutes. Try submitting the login form again and wait a few seconds for the e-mail to arrive.

Tip: Only click once

The link will only work one time – once it’s been clicked, the link won’t log you in again. Instead, you’ll need to go back to the login screen and generate a new link.

Tip: Delete old login e-mails

Make sure you’re clicking the link on the most recent e-mail that’s been sent to you. We recommend deleting the e-mail once you’ve clicked the link.

Tip: Check your security policies

Some security systems will automatically click on links in e-mails to check for phishing, malware, viruses and other malicious threats. If these have been clicked, it won’t work when you try to click on the link.

Need to change your e-mail address?

For security reasons, e-mail address changes can only be complete by your Member Engagement Manager. Please contact the team directly for further help.
