What is a 'card clash'?

If you tap your purse or wallet containing more than one contactless card on a reader, the reader will not know which card to read, and if you are inside London, it could also take payment from a card you did not intend to pay with. This is called card clash. To avoid card clash, only tap the card you want to use for your journey on the card reader.
