Level 2 EMV® kernels

Alcinéo develops EMV contact and contactless level 2 payment kernels to facilitate the global deployment of innovative acceptance solutions worldwide.

EMV Level 2 payment kernels

Level 2 EMV kernels are implemented into terminals to manage the payment transaction flow.

Contact

The functions and commands necessary to perform an EMV Chip and PIN transaction are defined in the EMVCo® specifications, divided into 4 books (ICC to terminal interface, security and key management, application specification, and other interfaces).   

Contactless

Contactless readers must support the functional applications of many card brands according the markets targeted for their deployment. Each payment scheme has defined contactless specifications and testing processes for the certification of contactless payment terminals. 

Alcinéo’s Kardia payment suite is our extended portfolio of  payment kernels, enabling our customers to seamlessly and rapidly certify their payment acceptance products and easily deploy everywhere in the globe.
