The mobile contactless payment technology makes purchases quick and easy.

Payments up to €50:

  • Look for the contactless symbol on the card terminal at the shop’s checkout
  • Unlock your smartphone
  • Tap your smartphone against the card terminal

You can make payments this way up to a cumulative limit of €150. To reset the limit – log in to the Swedbank app or make a mobile contactless payment and confirm it with biometric authentication.

Payments above €50 or any sum in other currencies:

  • Unlock your smartphone
  • Tap your smartphone against the card terminal
  • Confirm with biometrics
  • Tap card terminal again

You can also make contactless payments via Swedbank app. For that, please first log in to the Swedbank app, press „Pay with this card” and follow the steps.

Mobile contactless payments are only available for Android mobile phones running the operating system version Android 6.0 or above.

To be able to use the mobile contactless payments, you need to have:

  • An active Swedbank contactless MasterCard card with enabled contactless function

To enable a seamless yet secure experience you must have secure screen lock enabled to perform mobile contactless payments using the Swedbank 2019 Latvija mobile app.

While there are certain security features built into our mobile app and mobile contactless payments have been developed on the basis of the industry standards, in order to ensure the safe use of your mobile device, you as the owner need to follow some basic cyber rules:

  • Enable mobile contactless payments only on your own device. Do not share your mobile device.
  • Do not use a weak password or a weak pattern for your screen lock.
  • Update the software on your mobile device regularly. Have an anti-virus app installed.
  • Use official app stores only. Even if you do use official app stores, stay vigilant. Read reviews and feedback about the app you want to download before installing it.
  • If you lose your device or it is stolen, disable Swedbank services on the device via the Internet Bank or by calling 67444 444.
  • Disabling contactless payments for a card also disables mobile contactless payments for the corresponding card.
  • When a card expires, mobile contactless payments for the card are also disabled. You will need to enable mobile contactless payments for a renewed card.
  • If your device’s screen lock settings change, the app may disable mobile contactless payments on the device and request that you log in to re-enable mobile contactless payments.
