Transaction technology provider Carta Worldwide has added support for host card emulation (HCE) to its mobile payments platform — and is currently “supporting market trials in Europe and North America” that are expected to lead to large scale HCE deployments in late 2014.

“Carta’s comprehensive HCE service provides full lifecycle support for cardholder credentials and transactions in credit, prepaid or debit programs,” the company says. “It also includes EMV data preparation, personalization, provisioning and credential management via a secure cloud server.”

The solution “supports all operating systems with HCE capability and is actively in use with Blackberry, Nexus and Samsung Galaxy devices”.
