A growth opportunity for the payment marketIn the drive to capture more transactions, contactless provides a good opportunity to replace cash transactions. Consumers like the convenience.
NFC trials have shown that consumers appreciate the contactless convenience directly on their mobile phone. Gemalto's Optelio contactless sticker gives current banking customers the possibility to test mobile payment acceptance quickly while waiting for NFC handsets to reach critical mass.
The Optelio Sticker isn't simply a contactless mini-card with some adhesive. It has been specifically designed with patented Gemalto technology to provide reliable transactions no matter what mobile phone is used.
Gemalto knows mobile phones: we are a key technology supplier to the world's GSM, 3G and 4G mobile network operators. Modern mobile phones use a variety of cases from plastic to brushed aluminum, and with batteries, tri- and quadri-band transmission, WiFi and other active RF energy just below the surface, a mobile phone is a hostile environment for contactless transactions.
The Optelio sticker has been specifically designed to work reliably and consistently when attached to any mobile phone.
Mobile phones come in all shapes and sizes, with a constant drive to pack more into a smaller size. Gemalto's Optelio sticker, at 30 x 40 mm, is the smallest on the market, while still offering optimal RF performance. That means it fits conveniently on more mobile phones.
With better reliability and covering a wider range of phones, banks and financial institutions can quickly equip existing customers with an additional card on their favorite device: their mobile phone. Our advanced technology frees you from consumer headaches and incompatible phones and lets you concentrate on gaining more experience in contactless transactions.
