Contactless payment devices
Tap-to-pay hardware for cards, phones and watches — faster at the counter and now expected by most customers.
Speed at the point of sale
Contactless is the default payment gesture for a large share of customers now. A counter that cannot take a tap creates a small friction on every single transaction, and on a busy queue that adds up. The devices themselves are not exotic — most current terminals and readers already support it, they just need to be enabled and positioned where the customer can reach them.
How the setup works for your account
NFC card and wallet support
Tap-enabled cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay and smartwatch payments through one antenna.
Faster queues
No dip, no PIN entry below the floor limit, no receipt signature.
Customer-facing placement
Devices are designed to sit where the customer taps rather than being handed back and forth.
Same card-present treatment
A tapped card is a card-present transaction, with the risk profile that comes with it.
Getting it right on the floor
Position the reader
If the customer has to reach across the counter, tap adoption drops. Mount it facing them.
Signpost it
A small tap symbol at the till measurably increases how many customers use it.
Know your limits
Contactless transactions above a certain value will prompt for a PIN. Train staff so it does not look like a decline.
Common questions
Not necessarily. Most terminals sold in recent years already have NFC. Send us the model and we will confirm.
Each tap generates a one-time cryptogram, so the card number is not exposed. It is not a swipe.
No — a tapped card is priced as card-present, same as a dipped chip card.
