NFC
Introduction to NFC
Near Field Communication (NFC) is a technology that enables short-distance wireless communication.
Through NFC's contactless communication, two devices can transfer data in real time when they are
within 10 cm (4 inches) of each other. In addition to data transfer, NFC also allows you to make
payments.

NFC can be used in multiple scenarios with different requirements and methods.
Point-to-point mode: Transfers data between two NFC-enabled devices within a short distance. No
pairing is required and a more secure connection is established.
Scenarios
l Transfer files (such as images, apps, and contacts).
l Quickly establish a connection between devices (like Bluetooth pairing or hotspot sharing).
Limitations

Device Connection
l Both devices need to support NFC.
l During data transmission, devices must be within 10 cm (4 inches) of each other.
l Screen must be on and unlocked when using NFC.
Read/Write mode: Supports reading and writing NFC tags.
Scenarios:Check product information with NFC tags.
Limitations
l Cards and products must support reading and writing NFC tags
l Read and write/P2P must be enabled on the NFC settings screen if available. This feature may vary
depending on your carrier.
Card emulation mode: Allows your Phone to act as a smart card so it can access mobile ticketing for
public transport, and mobile payments.
Scenarios
HCE emulation: Allows your Phone to act as a QuickPass-enabled bank card by associating your
device with a physical bank card in a banking app.
Limitations
HCE emulation: For example, UnionPay Cloud QuickPass. First download the app for your bank card
and associate your card with the app. For details, consult your bank's customer service center. Then
enable NFC, set a specific bank app as your default payment app in NFC while keeping the screen on
and unlocked. To make Cloud QuickPass payments, your card and the POS device must support
QuickPass.
Not all devices support NFC.
