Sellers around the world can now accept payments using current-generation Android devices—while limiting physical contact at the point of sale. Customers win too, as they can make safe, contactless payments with just a tap of their contactless card, phone, or watch to the seller’s NFC-enabled smartphone.
Tap to Phone enables small businesses to more quickly connect to the Visa network to start accepting touchless payments using devices they already have, fast-tracking commerce for sellers around the globe.

Simplify payment acceptance for sellers of any size.
Visa’s Tap to Phone Contactless Kernel is a custom-built kernel written in Java that enables contactless payment acceptance for Visa payment credentials via contactless card or any NFC-enabled device (mobile, wearable, etc.) on any NFC-enabled Android Commercial-off-the-Shelf (COTS) device.
Solution providers or acquirers who intend to build a Tap to Phone payment application can either build their own kernel or leverage Visa’s easy-to-integrate kernel to accelerate solution development, effectively reducing kernel development time and eliminating the need for L2 certification.
