About Us

PowerCard Tap Card

PowerCard is a tap-to-pay card that provides more security and availability — currently used in the public transportation sector.

How it works

PowerCard's tap card uses an embedded microcontroller chip with Near Field Communication (NFC) to "talk" to a similarly equipped reader.

Why Contactless

Solutions

Faster queue & transaction time

Customers paying on a contactless reader complete transactions quickly, since they don't have to spend time counting money — reducing queue times.

Fewer abandoned sales

Contactless readers see fewer abandoned sales. The convenience lets customers pay without needing exact change on hand.

Reduced cash handling

Less change in the till means lower risk of theft and loss from mistakes.

Advantages

Built for everyone on board

Transaction Speed

Contactless payments complete in 15 seconds or less — twice as fast as other payment methods.

Secure

If a card is stolen or lost, the account can be frozen or the bank contacted to disregard fraudulent payments.

Effortless

NFC technology works with phones and connected accessories like watches, not just cards.

👍

Enhanced experience

Faster, more secure, effortless transactions raise average transaction value as customers carry less cash.

Secure transactions, fewer fraud losses

The card never leaves the customer's hand, and the chip technology is faster than many other forms of payment.

Less physical interaction

Contactless payment means operators don't have to handle a customer's card or cash they've touched.

Operational efficiency

No waiting for customers to dig through wallets or enter a PIN — contactless beats cash and card alike.

Streamlined processes

Fewer steps per transaction free up attention for other vital parts of the business.
