Contactless limits

All debit and credit cards issued by Virgin Money let you pay for items of £100 or less without having to key in your PIN. It's all about making purchases as hassle-free as possible, so when you're buying everyday things like coffee or lunch, you don't have to search around for cash. Just hold your card in front of the reader for a few seconds, and off you go.

Using your card with Apple Pay

Using Apple Pay is simple and it works with compatible Apple devices you use every day. You can use Apple Pay wherever you see one of these symbols.

Your card information is secure because it isn’t stored on your device or shared when you pay. Paying in shops, apps, and on the web has never been easier, safer, or more private.

Using our credit card app

Download the app from the App Store – just search for ‘Virgin Money Credit Card’. Once you’ve set up your card details and completed security, just follow the steps to register your card with Apple Pay.

If you’re an additional card holder, you won’t be able to register your card with Apple Pay in the Virgin Money app. Simply add using the wallet instead.
