Near Field Communication (NFC) and over the air (OTA) provisioning technologies will enable wireless operators to add even more value to their subscriber’s mobile phones and offer valuable new services to both consumers and enterprises. Through NFC and OTA, wireless operators will enable consumers to use their mobile devices to pay for their latte, movie ticket, or groceries, access transit and other access-controlled environments, download content from smart media, redeem coupons and offers— all with just a tap or wave of the phone at NFC-enabled readers and NFC-enabled media (like smart posters and interactive billboards).

ViVOtech has developed a complete OTA Provisioning solution that can be used by wireless operators to securely provision NFC phones with payment cards, membership and marketing messages such as coupons and targeted promotions into mobile phones. Card information will be securely downloaded over-the-air from the customer’s bank, merchant or service provider and safely stored in the mobile device using the latest cryptographic, authentication, and wireless communication technologies.

Consumers will use the easy-to-use ViVOwallet application to download cards and promotions in easy steps and just wave the NFC-enabled mobile phone by a contactless reader to pay, redeem coupons and discounts, quickly and easily.
