Contactless Payments

Why MULTOS?

MULTOS contactless platforms provide a fast track route for issuing banks to deploy Paypass, VisaWave and other contactless payment solutions. Dual interface MULTOS Cards can be issued using the same standard chip data prep and and perso systems and offer the same advantages to card issuers as standard MULTOS: Faster transaction speeds, cost effective multi-sourcing of card and services supply, and flexibility to update and add additional applications.

Supporting all brands

MULTOS provides a flexible and secure contactless EMV platform for all international and domestic payment brands - AMEX "Expresspay", JCB "J-SMART", MasterCard "M/CHIP", Visa "VSDC", Common Payment Application (CPA), and can be configured to support any domestic EMV scheme.

MULTOS chip products for contactless EMV

Contactless EMV applications can be implemented on full MULTOS products ranging from 8K E2PROM to 72K E2PROM contact and contactless chips, supporting dynamic (DDA) and combined (CDA) data authentication as standard, or on entry level 4K to 8K MULTOS step/one contactless platforms for (SDA) EMV based, which provide a cost effective alternative to native OS smart cards.

New Form Factors:

Contactless MULTOS chips can be embedded into a variety of new form factors: keyfobs, watches, USB keys, or mobile handsets supporting ISO 14443 or NFC (Near Field Communications) interfaces.
