EMVCo established the Type Approval process for the testing and approval of payment acceptance devices in accordance with EMV Level 1 and Level 2 specification requirements. The contact and contactless terminal-chip card interfaces must be certified following the EMV Level 1 requirements, including electrical and protocol testing for contact interfaces, and analog and digital testing for contactless interfaces. Terminal kernels must also go through official type approval. This Level 2 certification is managed by EMVCo or the Payment Schemes for contact devices and by the specific schemes for contactless enabled terminals.
UL Solutions’ dedicated test facilities for both pre-qualification and formal approval testing services support efficient testing and reliable results. Our laboratories are accredited and use EMVCo qualified testing tools and audited test platforms to perform testing against EMVCo Level 1 and Level 2 contact and contactless requirements.
