Merchant services
Contactless card PIN limits increase temporarily to help reduce the risk of COVID-19 transmission
Many ANZ merchants have temporarily increased the PIN limit for most contactless card and wallet payments from $100 to $200 to reduce a cardholder’s physical contact with payment terminals.
The new limit has been introduced across certain cards and at certain retailers. Customers paying on ANZ terminals should be guided to follow the PIN pad prompts. The new $200 limit is a temporary measure in response to COVID-19. The temporary limit will apply until revised Government advice is received. Transactions above $200 will continue to ask for the PIN.
