Welcome to the Cyclos NFC demo community


Please follow the following steps to test the NFC:

Requirements
Initialize & personalize NFC card

Install POS


Test POSLogout > and click on Launch POS > Receive payment > Enter the amount > Select payer > Hold the card away from the phone and only when asked by the device hold the nfc card as close as possible to the phone > For the password you can use the same password as for the login password. Note: we configured it that for payments under the 50 dollar no confirmation password is needed.


* Note1: you can also do this in a later stage. Only admins can initialize cards. Brokers and members (e.g. shops) can personalize cards, meaning assigning them for customers. This can be done by searching for the customer in the normal user search option, going in to the user details and hold the phone away from the card and click on Personalize NFC card and when asked by the phone hold the card as close to the phone as possible. When you want to assign a card to another customer the card needs to be formatted by an admin or broker, after which it can be initialized and personalized for the new user. The format option can be found at the card manage page. Usually new 'blank' cards are already formatted by the factory, meaning it is not needed to format them before initializing.

* Note2: The POS payment can also be configured for other methods than NFC such as magnetic (swipe) card or QR code. These methods are considered less secure, but it can be used as a backup method. QR codes could be printed on the NFC cards, and could have different rules (e.g. don't allow PINless payments). With a simple script it is possible to assign automatically a QR token to a client when personalizing/activating a NFC card for that client.
