Can’t you turn on in your bank app to get a push notification immediately on every transaction? I have this turned on for both of my credit card accounts, so literally within a second or two of tapping or inserting (whether physical card, or Apple Pay on the watch or phone) I get a notification telling me how much was just charged to my card.

Useful for double checking that something hasn’t gone wrong and I haven’t been charged the wrong amount! I’d also see if a fraudulent transaction went through.
