30 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 authorized 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/insert the card into the device. 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. Along with the contactless payment card, the card “Elcard-NFC” supports the possibility to carry out contact payments through POS terminals by using a standard way – the card chip.

Moreover, with a help of the card, it is possible to withdraw cash in ATMs, pay for the purchases or services in POS terminals of other partner payment systems as “ArCa” of the Republic of Armenia, “Belcard” of the Republic of Belarus, (soon “UzCard” of Uzbekistan, “Corti Milli” of Tajikistan, “APRA” of the Republic of Abkhazia). In the nearest plans, there is a geographical expansion of partner banks’ servicing of the “Mir” network in other countries as well.
