Security in contactless payments

According to the regulation on strengthened customer authentication when performing contactless card-based payment transactions, PIN code authentication is mandatory in the following cases:

  • If the card has made 5 consecutive contactless transactions at a POS terminal without a PIN (since the last transaction authenticated with a PIN), the next contactless transaction must be authenticated with a PIN by the client. Otherwise, it will be rejected.
  • If the total accumulated amount of all contactless transactions at the POS exceeds 9,000 denars (since the last transaction authenticated with a PIN), the next contactless transaction must be authenticated with a PIN, regardless of the transaction amount. Otherwise, it will be rejected.
  • If the individual amount of a contactless payment transaction at a POS terminal exceeds 2,000 denars, it must be authenticated with a PIN. Otherwise, it will be rejected (this limit per contactless transaction at certain POS terminals in the country may be 2,500 denars, and in other countries it may exceed 2,500 denars).
  • When paying with Google Pay, it is not necessary to enter a PIN code at a POS terminal, but it is mandatory for the mobile device to be unlocked in order to make the payment, regardless of the transaction amount.
  • When paying with Apple Pay, it is not necessary to enter a PIN code at a POS terminal, but authentication with Face ID, Touch ID, or your device's password is mandatory, regardless of the transaction amount.
