ANZ bank in Australia has actually started rolling out Contactless ATMs.
Which is great, as even some chip ATMs you put the card in far enough to have a magstripe skimmer work on most cases (presumably so that they work with the magstripe cards also)
Not the case for contactless!
(Of course here in Australia, Chip+Pin is Universal and Contactless is near-universal... I can use Apple Pay almost everywhere even small shops and have been able to for several years.. different story to much of the world)
Now the one thing that annoys me, is that currently shops here despite having separate payment terminals customer facing (largely for pin numbers) still operate sometimes on you handing your card to them - which is totally not necessary - especially in drive throughs. This is getting less common with tap to pay using mobile phones as people are (somewhat amusingly to me, given the value potential) hesistent to hand their phone to someone versus their actual card. I really wish merchants would enforce hard not letting the shop assistants handle cards (at least, prompt to handle it, if someone really wants help I'm not against that, but I don't like the default expectation).
But I also realise this kind of thing is much more common in some places so your mileage and feelings may vary.
