  • As a certified and regulated financial services provider, we are committed to following all the guidelines and regulations of the PCI international security standard in order to guarantee the security of all transactions carried out on your mobile device. When the application is installed, the following authorisations and information are requested from your mobile device:

    • Authorisation to use NFC Access to NFC (Near Field Communication) is required to read the credit or debit card.
    • Camera access/management authorisation To secure PIN entry, the application requires that no screenshots are taken during the payment process. This also protects you as a merchant.
    • Authorisation to manage connections The application must ensure that a payment is not interrupted by a phone call, for example. To do this, Tap on Mobile asks to be defined as the default application for caller identification and spam.
    • Device location authorisation Location is used for the digital receipt. It allows you to provide your customers with a receipt indicating the location of the payment. Device location is also used to meet security requirements or to detect possible misuse of the application.
    • Accessibility services These authorisations are needed to ensure that the application is not covered during the payment process and that it remains open and visible at all times. The various authorisations and information contribute to the security of each transaction. Your mobile device thus becomes a payment terminal, with PIN verification for amounts over €50.
  • Yes, Tap on Mobile is now compatible with iPhones (iPhone XS or newer) and Android devices. On Android, the app automatically checks whether the device is technically compatible during installation.
