The German provider of electronic payment and risk management services Wirecard is set to handle all technical and financial services for the Vodafone SmartPass card solution.
Customers with an NFC-enabled and wallet-certified smartphone receive a SIM card with the NFC function and can then pay with their Vodafone SmartPass credit at all Visa-certified contactless terminals. Owners of mobile phones without integrated NFC technology can attach a SmartPass NFC sticker to the device. The Visa card information can be used in connection with an NFC SIM card or sticker to enable contactless tap & go payment processing.
In recent news, Vodafone has selected Wirecard as its partner for the launch in Spain of mobile payment service Vodafone SmartPass in partnership with Visa.
