Implementing fast and secure cashless payment solutions
Amusement arcades, family entertainment centres and vending operators can maximise their efficiency by using NFC-enabled mobile wallet passes for pre-paid stored value applications. Retailers can also expand their payment options with this ‘just tap’ technology.
Customers can load their digital wallet pass with credit – through an app, online, at a kiosk or PoS terminal – which can then be used to make cashless payments with just a ‘tap’ of a phone on a reader. Stored-value and pre-paid credit applications can take advantage of the benefits of using NFC wallet passes with VTAP readers.
Super-convenient, quick identification
VTAP wallet readers auto-select the relevant NFC pass on a device the instant it comes in range, so pre-paid credits can be used with just a ‘tap’ of a phone or Apple Watch.
Mobile phones are always close-at-hand, so using them to make stored value payments is naturally easier than searching for a physical pre-payment card – which may easily be lost or stolen.
Highly secure authentication
Wallet pass data exchanged over NFC with VTAP readers is securely encrypted, leveraging the robust security architectures of Apple Wallet and Google Wallet.
Fast, efficient & economical
Immediate issuance via SMS, email or app, with easy online management. Avoiding the delays and costs incurred throughout the lifecycle of physical IDs – from procurement, printing and distribution, to administering forgotten, lost or stolen cards. Users can block a lost or stolen device via the appropriate ‘Find My Device’ app – restoring their wallet contents when they have recovered or replaced their device.
Kinder to the environment
Digital wallet passes avoid the need for plastics used to produce physical ID’s such as cards, fobs and wristbands.
VTAP readers – designed for easy integration
Legacy & mixed media support
In addition to NFC wallet passes, VTAP readers also support popular RFID technologies – such as MIFARE. This mixed media support makes migrations from plastic to digital cards seamless and straightforward to manage.
Flexible form factors
VTAP readers have an extensive range of connectivity options, including USB and RS-232 serial interfaces. Available as PCB modules for flexible inclusion within equipment and kiosks, VTAP readers include a compact space saving option and the ability to use custom antennas.
Straightforward set-up
VTAP readers are designed to be simple to configure and easy to manage. No dedicated drivers or SDK required. Reader configuration and updates are easy to manage via the standard file system interface.
“VTAP readers are incorporated into cashless payment terminals in many family entertainment centres around the world.”
