Ingenico Release the Paymark Contactless Solution to the Market!

Available now to deploy on the Paymark Network with the INGENICO i5100, the SkyPay-300 offers a giant leap forward in payment technology.

A quick guide to Contactless
All new Contactless cards include the latest advanced security features required by the payment card industry. Payments are processed through the same secure Visa/MasterCard technology as Chip and PIN transactions. As an extra precaution, the SkyPay-300 will occasionally ask customers to enter their PIN to make sure they are indeed the cardholder.

Contactless transactions are covered by the same fraud protection as Chip and PIN transactions. Contactless also offers an extra level of security by allowing the customer to retain control of their card at all times, preventing behind the counter fraud from taking place.

Payments are made via radio wave communication between the customer's contactless credit card and the SkyPay-300; contactless cards have an antenna embedded in the card plastic.

By simply holding the contactless card within a few centimetres of the SkyPay-300, at the point of sale, the card is detected and the chip in the card is powered on. This allows a wireless communication link to be established between the card and the reader enabling the transfer of information which takes less than half a second to complete.

As soon as the transaction is complete, the SkyPay-300 will display a row of four green lights, indicating that the contactless card can be moved away from the reader.
The SkyPay-300 is fully compatible with the global EMV standards, as well as Visa's PayWave and MasterCard's PayPass.

Contactless card processing is fast, secure and convenient , no more fumbling for change or traditional card reading to hold up queues.
