Cryptera introduces NFC contactless reader

May 27, 2020

Cryptera A/S, a provider of encryption, certification and secure provisioning technology, has launched a new NFC contactless reader which accepts EMV Contactless, Discover DPAS, Mastercard MCL, Visa payWave, AmEx ExpressPay, JCB J/Speedy, Interac Flash, Apple Pay, Google Pay and Samsung Pay, according to a press release. 

Cryptera's EMVCo and PCI 5.x approved NFC reader is available as part of its flexible Modular Payment Solution or as a standalone reader to function with an already installed controller or PC. It is available with USB connection and an XFS service provider for ATM environments. 
 
"The NFC Reader is a ruggedized, reliable contactless/NFC module that can be used as part of the Cryptera modular unattended payment solution, as stand-alone unit, or as part of the retro-fitting of payment terminals, currently taking place in the industry," Stig Gudmundsen, head of global sales at Cryptera A/S, said in the press release. "It is ideally suited to design into, or to retrofit contactless NFC reading into an existing payment solution." 
 
With the recent introduction of EV charging stations and alternative power sources, this merchant channel requires nimble payment solutions that can service today's needs, and be prepared for the next wave of technology advancements. Cryptera's NFC reader fits that model by offering easy integration, securing data transactions and delivering a rugged design, according to the press release.
