Powered by the Retail Payment Switch under the National Payment Switch, the NEPALPAY TAP is the new payment feature currently enabled through connectIPS Mobile App (with the scope of extension in Mobile Banking / Wallet App) to support NFC (Near Field Communication)-based transactions between two devices in close proximity.
It can be used for P2P and P2M payments as contactless transactions. The payer’s smartphone needs to be NFC-enabled to use this feature. Payers can make payments by just tapping NFC-enabled smartphones onto NEPALAPY TAP-enabled Android-based POS devices available at merchants. There is no need for internet connectivity at the payer/sender end in order to make such payments with NEPALPAY TAP.
