The new module, which supports RFID contactless smart card payments, can be added to base model Omni 7000MPD and Omni 7100MPD terminals at purchase or after the terminals are put into use, without returning the terminals to the manufacturer. With its new contactless module, VeriFone is targeting the growing market of retailers moving to contactless payment programs that use chips with radio-frequency technology, such as MasterCard® PayPass™ from MasterCard International and ExpressPay from American Express. The module is also compliant with electronic transit fare cards using Mifare and other ISO 14443 compliant protocols preferred by transit system operators around the world. These standards ensure convenience for merchants and mass transit systems accepting various contactless payment cards as well as for cardholders looking to use their contactless cards for daily purchases.
