Mohammad Aleban, Nearpay CEO and co-founder added that “this collaboration sets new standards for contactless payments, reflecting Nearpay’s commitment to transforming the payments landscape.”

SoftPOS solutions enable smartphones or tablets with NFC capabilities to function as contactless payment terminals.
