KDB Bank Cards

Information about the private payWave cards

The payWave is a contactless payment technology, which is more comfortable and faster than the conventional bankcard payment. In case of shopping you only tap the card to the terminal and the transaction will immediately be completed, there is no need to scan the magnet stripe or the chip of the card. In case of contactless payments in Hungary under HUF 5,000 don’t even have to enter your PIN code (this amount can be variable per countries).

The contactless payment function – after the bankcard activation – can be activated with the first PIN code transaction.

How to use the contactless function:

• If you see the icon on the POS terminal, you can use the contactless function of your bankcard.
• Tap your bankcard to the POS terminal icon, after some seconds a beep and flash of the terminal lights indicate the successful payment.
• For amount higher than HUF 5,000 you have to enter your PIN code.
• After payment you get the receipt as usual.

The contactless payment highest limit is equal to the bankcard 24 hours payment limit.

The advantages of the contactless card:

• It can be used as a normal bankcard: for purchase, online shopping or cash withdrawal from ATMs.
• You can pay with one tap: at the terminals with  icon you do not have to pass over your bankcard because it is not necessary to insert the card into the terminal.

Is the contactless payment secured?

• During payment you will keep your bankcard, you do not have to give it to the cashier, so you can exclude any risk that may arise from that.
• The bankcard operates from 1-3 centimeters from the contactless terminal. Due to this small distance, no abuse is possible.
• Contactless payments higher than HUF 5,000 you have to enter your PIN code.
• You will still receive the receipt or invoice after the purchase.
• If you applied for bankcard SMS or full SMS service, our bank will send messages about all the bankcard transactions.
