The Review is timely as Australia’s payments system is on the cusp of a fundamental transformation driven by a combination of digital technologies, nimble new fintech players and changes in consumer and merchant payment preferences accelerated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Additionally, the Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) is conducting its Retail Payments Regulatory Review, which commenced in 2019 (RBA Review) but was postponed due to COVID-19 and there is a proposal to consolidate Australia’s domestic payments systems which has potential implications for competition within the Australian domestic schemes, as well as with existing and emerging competitors in the Australian payments market through all channels. Getting the regulatory architecture right will set Australia up for success in the digital economy for the short term and in years to come. However, a substandard regulatory architecture has the potential to stall technologically driven innovation and stymie future competition, efficiencies and enhanced end user outcomes. eftpos’ response comprises: Part A – eftpos’ position statement Part B – eftpos’ background Part C – responses to specific questions in the Review. We would be pleased to meet to discuss any aspects of this submission.

  • NPCI Appoints FIME to Set up the Certification Body for India's
    NPCI appoints FIME to set up the certification body for India’s Payment Scheme, RuPay FIME to define, manage and execute certification programme for RuPay 6 March 2014 – National Payments Corporation of India (NPCI), the umbrella organisation of all retail payment systems in the country, has appointed advanced secure-chip testing provider FIME to deliver its RuPay certification programme. NPCI will utilise FIME’s expertise in setting up EMV®-based certification board for its card payment scheme- RuPay. FIME will define the certification specification, laboratory setup, test plan specification, test tools and operate the certification board for RuPay. FIME will also be involved in setting up the certification process including the associated administrative and business operations. This certification board will be effective from March 2014. This will ensure all payment cards and point-of-sale terminals deployed under the brand align to the requirements of RuPay specifications. It will also ensure necessary infrastructural alignment of acquirers and issuers with the payment system. Prakash Sambandam, Director of FIME India says: “Many countries have, or are in the process of migrating to the EMV payment standard. Transitioning to a chip payment infrastructure will take time and require the implementation of new product development cycles. Adhering to RuPay, an EMV payment scheme will ensure that the products achieve the required functional and security standards and perform as intended, once live in the marketplace. This level of compliance is vital to ensure product interoperability and security optimisation”. In addition to enhanced security, the new payment platform presents opportunities to deliver advanced payment solutions – such as mobile and contactless payments – which are based on secure-chip technology.

Some authors claim that Utopian visions are used by IT firms to market their services and products, and that the hype that often accompanies technological innovations is part of a "large scale social process" in contemporary societies. This article discusses the social role of technological utopianism with respect to the introduc­ tion of EFTPOS in New Zealand.

  • Instructions: Using the Bank of America Prepaid Card General
    Instructions: Using The Bank of America Prepaid Card How to Make a Purchase at a VISA® Debit Merchant or Maestro® Merchant: Present the Card to the cashier. Swipe the Card through the terminal reader. Push either debit or credit. When selecting credit, no PIN(personal identification number) is necessary. Just sign the receipt when the cashier hands it to you and take a copy of the receipt for your records. If you select debit, you will be asked to enter your PIN. The terminal will then ask you if you want cash back. If you do, enter the amount and the cashier will dispense the cash to you. You will only be able to receive cash back if your sponsor selected this option and you have the available funds on the Card. Always check your balance prior to this type of transaction. How to Get Cash at any ATM Displaying the Cirrus® or VISA® Logos: (ATM functionality varies among financial institutions and countries. To get cash at an ATM, you should first follow any on-screen directions.) Insert the Card into the ATM. Enter your PIN. If asked which account to access, try selecting “Checking” and if that does not work select “Credit.” Press Cash Advance or Withdrawal. Each system is slightly different, but this will make sense once you are at the ATM. Remove and count your money. Remove the Card and receipt. Keep your receipt for your records. Note: For ATM transactions performed at a non Bank of America ATM, the owner or operator of the ATM may charge an additional fee.
