Mobile EMV and NFC: Going Beyond the Checkout Experience

EMV. It’s the three-letter word that could completely redefine the checkout experience, especially as it relates to mobile payments. While it may be clear to most how EMV will better secure card-present transactions, how will it come into play with contactless mobile transactions?

Which EMV will you pay with?

EMV. It’s the three-letter word that is driving a lot of discussion with the recent data breaches. But the EMV upgrade to chip technology has the potential to completely redefine the checkout experience, especially as it relates to contactless and mobile NFC payments. While it may be clear to most how EMV standards and technology work, there is still a lot of confusion around EMV which begs the question – how will it enable secure contactless and mobile transactions?
