Visa payWave.
Visa payWave is the latest in secure, contactless technology. It will help you spend less time at the register and give you the freedom to do the things that matter most to you. For transactions under $100, just wave your Visa payWave-enabled card in front of a Visa payWave reader and go. There’s no need to enter your PIN.
Using PIN for in store purchases is now mandatory in Australia and other parts of the globe. If you’d like to change your ATM PIN, you can do it by logging into your online account and selecting ‘My Profile’ from the ‘Services’ menu option.
If you have additional cardholders they’ll need to set up their own Virgin Money Online account. To do this we need to have their mobile number on file, so give our Customer Care Team a call on 13 37 39.
Visa payWave-enabled cards are backed by Visa’s Zero Liability Policy3 and are as secure as any other
Visa chip card. They carry the same multiple layers of security, which ensures that you are not responsible for fraudulent or unauthorised transactions. Visa payWave cards only work when the card is within 4cm of the card reader and the payWave terminal can only process one transaction at a time. Because your Visa payWave card doesn’t leave your hand during the transaction, you remain in control of your card at all times.
Use your PIN for all other purchases at the terminal. Your four-digit PIN is used as proof of identity when making over-the-counter transactions at selected merchants. It is designed to make things quick and easy at point of sale and is generally a more secure transaction process.
You can find more information regarding Visa payWave in the credit card section of our website or

Cash when you need it.
With your ATM PIN you can use your Virgin Australia Velocity Flyer Card to withdraw cash from over 20,000 ATMs in Australia, and over 820,000 ATMs around the world. Look out for the Visa or Plus symbols5. You can change your ATM PIN at any time
