Why aren’t my contactless payments working?

Reset your card's contactless limit

You may have reached the contactless limit for a certain card. To reset it in the Revolut app:

  • Go to 'Home' on the bottom menu
  • Tap the cards icon in the top-right corner
  • Select your card
  • Tap 'Settings'
  • Scroll down and make sure 'Contactless payments' are enabled
  • If the 'Contactless limit' is reached, tap 'Reset'

If resetting the limit doesn’t work

  • Check if the card is activated: select the card in the cards section and tap 'Activate now', choose 'I have my card', or make a PIN purchase and then attempt the payment again
  • If you used Apple Pay or Google Pay: re-add the card to your wallet or create a new virtual card, then retry the payment
  • Check for card damage: if the physical card is damaged or worn out, it may not work. You can order a replacement by selecting the damaged card in the cards section and tapping 'Replace card'
