Smart card readers are available in either contact, contactless, or a combination of contact and contactless models.
Contact smart card readers require that the card is manually inserted into the reader by the user. This application is most commonly used for applications that require more security, like government IDs, e-commerce transactions, campus IDs, network security, vending, meal plans, loyalty, electronic cash, and health care cards, to name just a few.
It’s important to make sure your cards readers can “read” technology cards that are 13.56 KHz; your readers may only be able to read the 125KHz frequency. Also, MIFARE cards come pre-encoded with a unique 32-bit number, so you will need to make sure your software can read 32-bit formats.
