Near Field Communication (NFC)

UTap uses the latest NFC technology which allows your card or mobile to communicate with the POS machine or the ATM by simply tapping on it, without having to insert the card into the machine. NFC technology is widely adopted worldwide and is considered the latest and the most reliable banking cards technology.

NFC uses Dynamic Data Authentication (DDA), which provides the highest security and privacy layers. With DDA, the card generates a unique code for each and every transaction, and your private information such as your name and your card’s CVV (the 3-digit code at the back of your card) are never transmitted to any POS machine. With DDA protection, your UTap card is completely secure and does not need a special protective card cover.

Using NFC technology, your UTap card can communicate remotely with the POS or ATM to allow you to process your transaction securely and conveniently.
