NFC EMV Card Reader reads and stores data and information from contactless payment cards (credit, debit, prepaid, etc...) on your Android based device.

Using this application you can read data from your existing plastic or digital payment card.

Read, store & manage multiple payment cards

View accessible application data & records

Extract sensitive payment cards information

View "Track 1" & "Track 2" data (which is most actively used in payment card processing)

Take a look at the last made transactions

Additional information:

POS/POP terminals all around the world use the EMV standard to process contactless transactions.

Using this application you will be able to see an example communication between a POS/POP device and the payment card you want to read.

Important - No fees are charged for using this application.

It also means that the payment cards you read will NOT be charged at all.
