Card+ App V5L now available in App-Stores

CardWare is excited to announce Version 5 Lite (V5L) of the revolutionary Card+ App, now available for download from App Stores.

V5L is the first release to feature the PhishGuard™ service, using AI/Heuristic checking of URLs received in Text, email, and QR codes, reducing exposure to SMS & Phishing scams. Fully integrated feedback on risk/confidence with Card+ Pay™, to address the growing wave of phishing attacks, without giving away hard-earned money to fraudsters. The V5 download also supports Card+ Pay™ with SmartTokenization™, for more secure/private/convenient NFC-tap at merchant's Point-of-Sale, Self-Checkout, and Vending Machines.

V5L also features links to CardWare news, updates, and blogs. As well as access to the gallery of features and solutions to real-world problems in the broader product family, including Card+ App V5 Pro version.

CardWare’s CTO, David Wyatt, noted: “What we’re delivering here and now is a quantum leap forward. We’re helping to facilitate the transition of payments and identity into the 21st-century internet era, fully realizing the NFC-tap convenience, across device-makers and platforms, and fully embracing AI-driven Agentic Payments with our SmartTokenization technology. We're doing that while removing merchant liability, reducing transaction fees, PCI compliance burdens, customer-friction filled passcodes, and cart abandonment false-declines (as are unnecessary elsewhere, for example : China WeChatPay/AliPay, Thailand PromptPay, Malaysia TNG, India UPI, and other modern payments systems, world-wide). Even more revolutionary, we are also making it open for collaboration via a distributed decentralized network of tokenization servers for payments and identity, through Open standards, by joining the OpenToken™ Alliance.”
