How safe is Tap and Pay?

[CyberPsych]

If I have Tap and pay enabled and keep cards in wallet, can someone scan near may wallet and debit any amount? Looks like a noob question, but I want to know what are the risks of this being enabled. In Fuel bunks, we can't even see how much they're charging but ask us to move forward quickly to get next vehicle in place, says receipt is not available and SMS from bank takes some time to get delivered by which we have already left the bunk. Entering PIN eliminates all these, we can cross check the transaction amount.

Thats why I prefer to use Samsung Pay each time for tap and pay transaction

I am also planning to switch to Samsung Pay.

It works flawlessly. I haven't faced a single failed transaction in last 6 years. Card is only required for lounge access

Even your apple phone has NFC feature .Use it .Like Imobile app,SBICARD app, Paytm allows you to use your card for tap and pay payments.
But again Samsung Pay is far ahead in comparison.

Do we need to have the phone bare (no back cover) to use NFC?

Nice ! Only you need a RFID safe wallet for the cards, now.

Yes yes, simply reinstalling will work. I will do.

it seems axis only has transaction limit not overall limits on cards for various types of transaction. Hackers can swipe us clean with multiple transactions
