SecureKey Technologies announced today that it has teamed up with France-based INSIDE Secure to make it easier for consumers with contactless cards to make online purchases:

“The new solution integrates the patent-pending SecureKey technology into the INSIDE SecuRead NFC solution, available in a SecuRead version upgrade. With SecuRead and the SecureKey technology integrated into a smartphone or tablet, these devices can support strong, two-factor authentication using a contactless credential on a smartphone or contactless card.”

Device OEMs will be able to integrate the technology with the SecuRead solution.

The solution allows consumers to use tap-to-pay technology when making online purchases, without requiring the merchant to change their website.
