THALES GROUP CONFIDENTIAL
Introduction: what is the concept?
A communicating bank card…
… with iOS smartphones – through BLE (BlueTooth Low Energy) - to
vocalize the amount of the payment
transactions and the different steps (PIN validation, verification)
.
The card is dual interface (contact & contactless) but the vocalization is done when the payment is done in
contact mode only. Standard contactless payments – without vocalization – can still be done.
Thales also provides an API and a test app to help developers do the mobile application.
Compatibility with Android phones may be developed on demand.
The solution is based on a Thales IP.
Benefit: reduce fraud to visually impaired people
 Strong reassurance before they enter the PIN code to confirm the transactions.
 Consumers can be sure they pay the right price.
 Vocal confirmation that the transaction has been approved.
