PAYMENT DEVICES
Smart-card and wearable contactless payment formats.
Galaksity provides smart cards, stickers and wearable payment devices according to the organisation’s usage scenario, field conditions and target user experience.
HOW WE BUILD IT
01 / PAYMENT MODEL
Contactless payment devices can be configured for open-loop or closed-loop payment models according to project requirements.
In an open-loop model, the payment device is linked to the user’s bank or credit card and can be used across the existing payment-acceptance infrastructure. Users can make contactless payments through a designated sticker, ring, wristband, watch strap or key fob.
Everyday payments, mobility, municipal services and other payment-acceptance environments.
In a closed-loop model, the balance or usage entitlement assigned to the user can only be used within a defined service network or controlled environment. Spending, balance movements and operational outputs can be managed and reported centrally.
Transit cards, water-meter and natural-gas-meter cards; concert and festival venues, hotels, resorts, campuses, events and controlled service environments.
A seamless access experience in mobility infrastructures using bank cards and contactless payment devices.
02 / PHYSICAL FORM
Stickers, watches, rings and key fobs can be offered as contactless payment devices according to usage habits and field requirements.

The choice depends on user habits, frequency of use, field conditions, distribution model and the target experience.
The devices can be designed to work with existing systems, GalaksiPay and, where needed, Electronic Fare Collection Systems.
