Get credit card information via NFC on Android


Is there some API, which I can use to read the credit card information per NFC on Android device ? Or is it possible to retrieve an ID, which is unique per credit card using some API ?

I have tried the awesome looking Triangle IO, but it seems that their servers are not working, because I have cloned their sample github project, and also registered a keys, as they required in their setup tutorial. But when I installed the app on my android, it gives me an error: "Invalid application information provided. Double check your app id, access id ..., ".
Then I downloaded their official sample app from Google Play. It gives me the same error. Therefore I am assuming, that Triangle IO servers are not working, does anyone using Triangle and can confirm me this ?


Solution

  • Some time ago I found the library for Android, which can read the data from a credit card. Here it is: https://github.com/devnied/EMV-NFC-Paycard-Enrollment
    It's actually the source code for this application: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.github.devnied.emvnfccard
