Evaluate the indisputable advantages of the contactless card “Elcard-NFC”, issued by the «Keremet Bank»

23 December 2020

“Keremet Bank” started issuing cards of the national system “Elcard” with the built-in function of the contactless payments based on NFC technology.

NFC (Near Field Communication) – this is a technology of the contactless data exchange between the special reading terminals and payment cards on the distance of up to 10 cm without the risk of data loss or its interception - the data on the card is in encrypted form and is not transmitted anywhere.

Contactless technology allows you to pay for the purchases remotely and as quickly as possible without handing over the card to an unauthorized person. Bank card “Elcard-NFC” is simply brought to the reading device on the cash counter without PIN code entering for instant payment. If the payment sum exceeds 1000 soms, it will be still required to enter a PIN code for security purposes. After that, the merchant will print the payment receipt for the cardholder.

Contactless terminals are present in large shopping centers, markets and service points in Kyrgyzstan. In case there is no special device supporting contactless payments, you can still pay with an “Elcard-NFC” card in a standard way through a regular POS-terminal.
