Important information.

This important information relates to your use of MBNA cards with Apple Pay.

1. Protection and security

Your current account or credit card terms and conditions set out certain steps you must take to keep your account and card details secure. They also apply to the use of your card with Apple Pay. For example, you must do all you reasonably can to:

  • Not leave the device you use to access Apple Pay unattended;
  • Use appropriate security on your devices, such as passcodes, passwords, fingerprint recognition and other unlock methods;
  • Ensure you only register your own fingerprints and not anyone else’s, if fingerprint recognition is available on your device;
  • Keep your log in details, such as user ID, passwords, passcodes and any other means you have of accessing your devices or the information stored on them confidential;
  • Use Apple Pay in accordance with all terms and conditions notified to you;
  • Delete all your personal and financial information from your old device if you stop using it, for example, if you get a replacement device.


Contact us as soon as possible if you suspect any unauthorised use of your Apple Pay device, or if your device or security details have been compromised, lost or stolen. You should also suspend your device using the Find My Mobile app.

2. Terms and conditions

When you use Apple Pay, all agreements, terms and conditions between you and us will continue to apply in the usual way. Transactions you make using Apple Pay are governed by the applicable current account or credit card terms and conditions, as well as any terms of use relating to Apple Pay which you may agree to with Apple. Your use of Apple Pay does not form part of any credit agreement you may have with us.

Apple Pay is provided by Apple and we are not responsible to you for your use of it or for any service, information, software or hardware provided to you by Apple or any other third party. We are not liable for any failures or faults, or any security, availability or performance issues, affecting or relating to Apple Pay or your device. We recommend that you read Apple’s Apple Pay terms and conditions for more information on these issues.

You may also have agreements with other third parties in relation to your use of Apple Pay such as other current account providers or credit card issuers. We are not responsible for any agreements you enter into with these third parties.
