Reply to comment by jaa101 in ELI5: Why are contactless payment methods faster than inserting the chip? by jimmysofat6864

Yea but even with with the chip in the machine it takes about 5 seconds before the transaction completes where on contactless I can hover it over the reader for half a second then it processes in 1-2 seconds then it's done.
