EMV Level 2 testing and certifications services? Ideally, it’s customer facing and can detect when a chip card is swiped, prompting the customer to insert the card instead. Proper EMV processing protects businesses from bank-initiated chargebacks. Simple enough, right? It’s actually not. Every terminal must go through extensive testing to become EMV certified. Let’s get these levels of EMV certification explained.
EMV cards are either inserted into the terminal slot, known as “card dipping,” or they can be contactless using near field communication (NFC) to transfer data by merely tapping the card on the terminal. Cards may also support both methods. See NFC.
Before an EMV capable solution can be deployed, there are many EMVCo mandated tests that need to be passed to validate that an EMV implementation conforms to the EMV standard. As the EMV specifications evolve and are regularly updated this can become a major job in itself – another reason why many businesses who require an EMV “Chip & PIN” or “Chip & Signature” solution opt to license a purpose built off the shelf EMV Software Kernel rather than develop their own in house.
We know, it is crucial to get it done under tight time in the market limitations.
