It is especially suitable for e-banking and e-payment applications, through certifications such as EMV™ Level 1 (contact) and PBOC (People’s Bank of China). It can also be used for e-identification applications, because it supports the Common Access Card (CAC), SIPRNET card, and J-LIS card.

ACR39U-H1 is easily integrated into computer-based environments (because of its driver compatibility with operating systems, such as Windows®, Linux®, and MAC OS®) and used with mobile devices running on the Android™ platform versions 3.1 and later.
