According to the BC, it will be possible to take the photo for approximation using the application of your bank or digital portfolio. In the latter case, the user must add the bank account to the compatible digital portfolio. At the time of payment, just bring the mobile phone closer to the payment machine that accepts NFC transactions.

In both cases, the confirmation of payment is made by biometry or passwords, ensuring safety in the transaction. Initially, the transactions will have a maximum standard value of R $ 500But the customer can change the maximum transaction or day value.
