As mentioned by others, the limit was raised to £30 over 4 years ago. Although, there is SCA (Strong Customer Authentication) regulation in the pipeline. I received an alert from at least two providers last year, albeit it does not apply to Apple Pay or Google Pay. However, due to Brexit, it remains to seen, if the banks will continue to implement it, or maybe change it to fit a new framework or renege on this pledge entirely.
Every time you make payments totalling €150 (£127) since you last entered your PIN, the contactless transaction will be declined. And a payment will be declined every time you’ve made five contactless payments in a row.
