Contactless payments
Contactless payment technology is a great new
way for you to accept low value Visa card payments - in less
than a second.
Our contactless payments solution is called Visa payWave and
it’s fast, convenient and secure. Cardholders hold their Visa card
up to a secure reader and a tiny antenna inside the card
communicates with the terminal. Half a second later the sale is
complete.
