• Don’t use the app to upload or store inappropriate or illegal images or content that breaches the rights of others
• Don’t attempt to make any income directly from using the app
• Don’t use the app to do anything illegal
• Don’t use the app in a way that could damage it or stop it from working or affect our systems or other users – for example, by hacking into or inserting malicious code into the Barclays Mobile Banking app or iOS, Android, Windows or other operating systems
• Don’t collect any information or data from Barclays Mobile Banking or our systems or try to read any messages or information not meant for you

Information about you

Keeping us informed

If your account details or any other information about you changes, tell us straight away.

How you must protect your money and information

• Barclays Mobile Banking gives you access to your bank accounts, so you need to make sure you don’t allow anybody else to log into your account
• Never give anyone else your passcode or other security details. If you suspect that someone else knows them, call us immediately on 0333 200 1014 * (outside the UK dial +44 333 200 1014)
• If you don’t let us know, we may not pay you back if someone takes money from your account because they knew your account details
• Always keep your phone or tablet secure and close the Barclays Mobile Banking app if you’re not using it. Don’t let anyone see your PIN if you are viewing it on your app
• BMB Push Notifications include your transaction details, which will appear on the locked screen of your mobile device unless you change its settings
• Some devices allow you to use your fingerprint for logging into the app. If you enable this feature, then anyone whose fingerprint is registered on your phone or tablet may be able to log into the app and access your accounts. Therefore, you must not activate this feature if you allow other people to access your phone or tablet using their fingerprint. You should delete any other fingerprints registered on the device first; otherwise, transactions made by anyone else who has their fingerprint registered on the device will be treated as being authorised by you
• Don’t install or use the app on a jail-broken or rooted device. These have had their security features changed in order to work, which makes them less secure, and means that fraudsters could access your phone or tablet and steal your information or money

If someone wants to know your security details

We won’t ever phone you or send you an email asking for your security details. Nor will we ever ask anybody to do this for us. If anyone contacts you asking for your security details, they may be a fraudster. Tell us immediately on 0333 200 1014 * (outside the UK dial +44 333 200 1014)

We may also use the cookies to help us provide more meaningful and relevant communications to you and to see if our ads are working – for example, we can check if you downloaded our app in response to an ad
• We need these cookies for Barclays Mobile Banking to work – if you don’t want them, you’ll have to delete the app

How the app accesses information about you

• If you use certain features (like uploading content or the ATM finder), the app will need to access information on your phone or tablet to work. You can limit this for some features, for example by turning off location settings on your phone or not using the features (like the ATM finder)

• If you don’t do this, we’ll assume you agree that the app can access your device or information

What else you need to know

Changes to Barclays Mobile Banking and our terms and conditions

• These terms and conditions replace those we issued in October 2016
• If we need to change anything about Barclays Mobile Banking, we’ll tell you about the change in advance (if it negatively affects how you use the app) or we’ll tell you after we make the change (if it benefits you or doesn’t affect how you use the app).

If things go wrong

If something goes wrong and it’s our fault, we’ll make good your loss. The terms of our account ('the General Terms') explain when you can claim back from us if you lose money because of something that’s our fault.

There are some things that we’re not responsible for because they’re out of our control or they relate to how your phone or tablet works. So we can’t be responsible if you lose money because:

• You cannot access the app for any reason or it’s slow
• Any device, hardware or software you use with the app is damaged or corrupted or doesn’t work
• The app doesn’t work as you expect, doesn’t meet your requirements or contains errors or defects or we don't correct these
• You don’t receive a text or message in the app in time
• We’re prevented from providing any service in part or in full because of something a third party does
• If you have applied controls to your cards, for example, turning remote purchases off, we will not be liable to you if you have properly authorised a remote purchase and the card transaction is executed. This should only happen in certain circumstances such as: contactless payments (including Apple Pay and Contactless Mobile payments), Direct Debits, Subscription payments, Online Cheques and certain Internet Purchases (i.e.: delayed payments made before Remote Purchases was switched off)

Part B – Paying a mobile contact

You’ll need to read and accept these terms and conditions to send or receive mobile payments using the Barclays Mobile Banking app. You can find out more on our Barclays Mobile Banking page.

Pay a mobile contact

Barclays Mobile Banking lets you send money using just a mobile number, via a third party, either Pingit, Paym or other service we tell you about.

When you pay a mobile contact, the payment information they see will include your name, payment reference and the amount. Your phone number is not sent to the recipient.

You can also choose to receive payments by mobile. When you do this, anyone with your mobile number will be able to see your name and that you’ve registered to receive mobile payments.

Pingit and Paym let you link your mobile number with your bank account so you can send or receive money using a mobile. There’s more information on the Pingit and Paym websites.

Please note you can only register for Paym with one account. If you’ve already registered an account from another bank or building society, you’ll need to de-register before you can register with your Barclays account.

Some key things you need to know

• There’s no charge to make or receive mobile payments, but your mobile service provider might charge you for using data
• The recipient will receive a notification and SMS to confirm the payment. They’ll also be able to see your name, payment reference, and payment amount
• Payment limits apply – you can check these on our website (or in the app)
• We might refuse to process a payment for reasons set out in the General Terms
• You need to tell us if you change your mobile number or account details so that we can continue to process payments correctly
• The terms and conditions for using the Barclays Mobile Banking app apply to this service, as do the General Terms for your account

If a payment is made by mistake

• You need to make sure you give us the right details so that we can ensure your payment goes to the right person
• If you enter the wrong details, the payment might not go through or it might go to the wrong person. While we’re not held responsible for this, we’ll help you to try and get your money back. We explain this in more detail in the General Terms
• If someone pays you by mistake, you authorise us to take the money from your account and return it to them. You must tell us as soon as possible and return any money you suspect or know has been sent to you by mistake

Your information

We’ll use your information as set out in the General Terms. When you choose to receive mobile payments, we share your mobile number with Pingit, Paym or other service we tell you about. This means other users of these services will be able to see your name and mobile number. You should also know that:

• By selecting a contact within the Barclays Mobile Banking app, you consent to Barclays accessing your address book
• If you sync Barclays Mobile Banking with your address book, we’ll store your contacts’ numbers on our servers so you can make payments quickly. We won’t use them for anything else
• We don’t store any names, emails, addresses or other information from your address book
• When you sync your address book, the app will show you who you can pay by mobile by displaying a Pingit icon next their name
• If another user has your mobile number in their address book, they’ll be able to see if you’re registered to receive mobile payments
• You can block our access to your contacts, but other Pingit users will still be able to see your name and that you can receive mobile payments, if you’ve registered to do so

Information we share with Paym

When you choose to receive mobile payments using Paym, your mobile number, account name and details will be shared with the following (who have promised to keep these secure and confidential):

• The Mobile Payments Services Company Limited (‘the Operator’), the company appointed by the UK Payments Council to operate the Paym service
• The service providers and agents (including their subcontractors) of the Operator
• Other financial institutions who are members of Paym
• Employees and contractors of any of these

Part C – Contactless Mobile and Contactless Cash

How does Contactless Mobile work?

If you have an Eligible Device, you will be presented with an option to select Contactless Mobile in the BMB app menu. If you have an eligible Barclays debit card and /or Barclaycard simply select the card you wish to pay with, select BMB as the default ‘Tap and Pay’ on your device and ensure the NFC functionality is switched ‘on’. Whilst linked to the same account, your Contactless Mobile will have its own 16-digit number different to the one on your physical payment card. This Contactless Mobile account number can be viewed by selecting ‘account details’ from the Contactless Mobile homepage within the BMB app.

If the payment is above £30 or you select ‘Always use PIN’ you’ll need to enter your normal card PIN into your Eligible Contactless Device when prompted to do so whilst making a payment. Otherwise simply wake-up the Eligible Contactless Device and hold it over the contactless reader.

You can use Contactless Cash in the following ways:

• Simply hold your eligible Barclays Debit Card over the contactless reader on the Barclays Self –Service Device and enter your normal card PIN when prompted
• Ensure you have enabled the Contactless Cash feature on your eligible device and hold it over the reader on the Barclays Self-Service Device. Enter your normal card PIN when prompted.
• Enter the amount you would like to withdraw in the Contactless Cash feature on BMB and when prompted, enter your card PIN into BMB. After this is complete, hold the eligible device over the contactless reader on the Barclays Self-Service Device within the time limit displayed on BMB

Refunds

If you want to return something bought using Contactless Mobile, you will need your store receipt. It will show the last four digits of your Contactless Mobile account number, and it may be needed for the refund. When the merchant is ready to process the refund, you will need to wake-up the Eligible Contactless Device and hold it over the contactless payment terminal. Refunds will also be subject to the merchant’s terms and conditions.

TfL

You can use Contactless Mobile to pay for your TfL journey by holding your Eligible Contactless Device over the contactless pad at the TfL gate at the beginning and end of your journey. You will not be asked for your PIN even if you have switched on ‘Always use PIN’. The app will only present a screen with information and / or instructions if there is an error.

What does it cost?

There are no additional charges that will apply for using Contactless Mobile or Contactless Cash however your internet or network service provider may charge you for using data on your Eligible Contactless Device.

What else you need to know

You can continue to make payments with Contactless Mobile and withdrawals with Contactless Cash without a mobile network connection.

You can choose not to allow this information to be collected by turning off location settings on your phone. You can manage how the app accesses your device or information using your privacy settings or by uninstalling the app.
