Contactless cards have gained popularity in recent times. Contactless cards allow you to make card transactions at PoS machines without having to enter the PIN number. However, the maximum transaction amount is capped at Rs.2000. This allows for faster payments at the counter.
The ICICI Bank Contactless Credit Card features a one-of-a-kind in-built MasterCard contactless payment technology. To make fast and safe purchases at retail outlets, simply tap your card against the PoS machine.

Key Points:
Contactless cards allow for faster payments when your bill value is less than Rs.2000. Other than that, they work as a normal credit card.
There are safety concerns with this card where instances of scanners scanning your card even when they are in your wallet or purse have been a cause of concern.
