Pioneer project in which Ingenico has been entrusted with installing contactless technology-based terminals
Ingenico has worked together with Banco Santander and Orange on the development in Spain of the first payment system with multi-brand NFC mobile, which will enable users in the city of Group Santander, near Madrid, to make purchases of any amount simply by putting their mobile telephone close up to the sales point terminal.
Ingenico has been entrusted with providing state-of-the-art contactless wireless terminals for this pioneer project which will have a test stage in the Group Santander City, with 40 sales points, and in shops in Boadilla del Monte, Madrid. The company has also undertaken the technological development of these terminals so that they can accept payment through NFC technology. The system developed, based on NFC (Near Field Communications) technology, will also allow its users to make payments in places like restaurants, convenience stores and "vending" machines in the Group Santander City, as well as obtain information from the services that they can find on it, through an advanced system of NFC labels.
