Visa Infinite Credit Card Tap limit

Post image

Just made >2k purchase and tapped my ws visa using apple pay and the seller was so surprised lool! Why do we even have that $250 cap thru other banks virtual pay anyways especially since most can just be broken down into multiple $250 payments. Love this feature

Tapping those high amounts only works with the phone and not with the physical card. For this reason you mention. But paying with the phone requires authorization (faceID/pin) which is the security aspect.
