Overview
Near-Field Communication (NFC) utilizes the same tap-to-pay technology as contactless chips, but instead of using their Card, consumers can load their payment information onto their NFC-enabled mobile phone.
In addition to the standard contactless features, NFC technology helps to engage consumers in a new way, enabling merchants to push relevant offers through the phone and delivering a convenient way to pay.
AMEX Digital Solutions provides acquirers with NFC specifications to enable POS terminals to accept American Express Cards on digital wallets and Issuers with solutions to integrate digital wallets to Card Member’s NFC-enabled phones.
