An NFC (Near Field Communication) card is a type of smart card equipped with NFC technology that allows for short-range wireless communication with other NFC-enabled devices, such as smartphones, tablets, and contactless card readers.
NFC cards are widely adopted due to their ease of use, speed, and versatility. They have become an essential component in contactless payment systems, public transportation ticketing, access control solutions, and other applications that benefit from fast and secure short-range communication between devices.
NFC cards can exchange data and information without requiring physical contact between the card and the device. This makes transactions and interactions quick and convenient. NFC cards are often used for contactless payments, enabling users to make secure transactions by tapping the card on an NFC-enabled payment terminal. The card can store encrypted payment information, ensuring secure transactions.
