Enhance everyday transactions: How contactless is an upgrade to EMV

As a technology that started less than 30 years ago, EMV and contactless credit cards have woven their way into our daily lives at lightning speed. Nearly two-thirds of consumers would prefer to use contactless payments as much as, or even more than, they are currently, and 44% of small businesses believe contactless or other mobile payment acceptance is a critical area of investment to meet consumer needs.

It is vital to leading existing customers and members, as well as a new generation of consumers beginning to take control of their financial futures, with a unified and leading-edge experience.

However, it can be difficult to find the right partner to collaborate with your EMV and contactless credit card projects. As more players come into the market with different promises, you will need to have a real insight into who has a physical and digital foundation with the right balance.

Finding a technology partner that can give you peace of mind and increased production efficiency is essential to ensure you’re able to keep your financial institution, products, and services top of wallet.

Looking for solutions vetted by industry, with certifications like Visa Ready and PCI-CP and top-notch machines equipped with trusted platform modules, ensures you’re working with a provider that’s well connected to the ecosystem and able to help you quickly and seamlessly give your cardholders precisely what they want.
