1. Apparatus comprising:
a contactless payment transceiver;
a display;
a non-contact user input device configured for detecting a predefined gesture of a user corresponding to a select input, a predefined gesture of a user corresponding to an increase input and a predefined gesture of a user corresponding to decrease input, wherein the predefined gesture corresponding to the increase input comprises a gesture of a user rotating a hand in a first direction and the predefined gesture corresponding to the decrease input comprises a gesture of the user rotating the hand in a second direction opposite to the first direction;
a processor arrangement; and
a non-transient memory storing computer code which when executed by the processor arrangement causes the apparatus to:
display an initial numerical value on the display;
respond to detecting the gesture corresponding to the increase input by incrementing the numerical value displayed on the display;
respond to detecting the gesture corresponding to the decrease input by decrementing the numerical value displayed on the display;
respond to detecting the gesture corresponding to the select input by setting a transaction amount that corresponds to the numerical value displayed on the display at the time of detection of the gesture corresponding to the select input; and
use the contactless payment transceiver to initiate execution of a transaction for the transaction amount with a contactless payment token.
