Contactless limit going up

UK Finance has confirmed that the national roll-out of the new spending limit for contactless card payments will begin on 15 October 2021. The decision to raise the limit from £45 to £100 was made by HM Treasury and the Financial Conduct Authority after a public consultation and discussions with the retail and banking sectors. It follows on from last April’s successful increase in the limit from £30 to £45.
