The FCA has the power to amend these limits subject to public consultation and Treasury approval.</p><p> </p><p>In line with this process, the FCA publicly consulted on increasing contactless limits. In making this decision the FCA fully considered the risks to customers, including the potential impacts on fraud, alongside the benefits. When the limits were last raised in Spring 2020 from £30 to £45 there was no significant recorded increase in the fraudulent use of contactless cards.  Similarly, no material increase in fraudulent transactions has been observed in other countries where the contactless limit increased to the equivalent of £100 or above. The FCA continues to monitor fraud rates across all payment types and will consider action as appropriate if fraud rates rise.</p> answering member constituency Salisbury answering member printed John Glen question first answered 25/10/2021 13:54:43 answering member 4051 label Biography information for John Glen
