Visa payWave is an Android application designed for businesses such as retail stores and restaurants. It allows users to verify if their payment terminals support contactless payments through Visa cards. Additionally, the app can serve as a default payment service for customers.
Checking
Upon opening the app, users have to choose one of the displayed standards from the main page. Then, it is necessary to place the terminal near their mobile device. The screen will then display information regarding the presence or absence of support for Visa payWave technology.
Users can check multiple cards simultaneously by accessing the main menu and selecting the “Run All Cards” option. Additionally, the app supports a log function, where the results of all tests will be saved.
Contactless Payment
To pay for a product or service, the customer needs to select a bank card and bring the smartphone close to the terminal. A PIN code or fingerprint is usually used to confirm the purchase, ensuring secure payment. Bank card data is transmitted in encrypted form, ensuring a high level of payment security.
