tap to phone

We are the financial institution and we had the merchant application up and running on the Android device for our merchants to accept the payment from their customers by scanning the QR. 

We also want our merchant app to accept the Visa Contactless card by using the Tap to Phone technology.

Could you please provide us the details process for our merchant app  to get certified by Visa to accept the Tap to Phone payment?

Hey @channak,

Visa Direct would be a good fit for your QR code use case. Here's the link to the Visa Direct documentation - https://developer.visa.com/capabilities/visa_direct/docs  
 
Please see additional Visa Direct API information by navigating to the link below for information on QR code.

Also, the Visa Developer Program, offers contactless payments. If you're interested in learning more about contactless payments, please refer to Visa Token Services APIs and Visa Chip Simulation Service APIs.
 
Visa Token Services might be a good fit for a requirement of taking contactless card payments via a mobile device. We have Card-On-File" (COF) functionality available on the Portal and these are the APIs that enable provisioning and use of tokens for HCE-based contactless (NFC) payments and for in-app purchases using tokens provisioned to a mobile device.
 
Additionally, Visa Chip Simulation Service enables simulation of contact and contactless transactions based on Visa chip standards, and may serve as a test simulation for chip and mobile transaction applications.
