Host-Based Card Emulator App

Install

The NFC Card Emulator is a specialized Chrome extension designed for developers and testers working with smart card communication systems. It leverages Host-Based Card Emulation (HCE) to simulate a smart card, enabling users to test the communication between smart card readers and emulated cards by utilizing APDU commands formatted in text files.

This application does not clone or copy real smart cards but facilitates authentic APDU communication scenarios for testing purposes. Ideal for authorized programmers, it provides a platform to verify the correct functioning of smart card systems using realistic data exchanges. Sample APDU scenarios for Visa and Mastercard are available on the official GitHub repository: https://github.com/okanatas/NFCCardEmulator.
