Creating an Industry Standard for a Payment Terminal through Cross-Value Innovation with a Payment Processor

Looking toward 2020 and beyond, the Japanese government has embarked on an initiative to align credit card payment security in Japan with international standards.

Panasonic is the first payment terminal vendor in Japan to meet international security certification standards* for both the system and its manufacturing, and Multifunctional Retail PINPAD can accept magnetic, IC, and contactless IC cards. It also reduces installation costs for stores thanks to specifications that allow continued use of existing point-of-sale (POS) terminals. The product has been steadily adopted by major retailers, giving Panasonic a solid position in the payment terminal market. *Certification standard "PCI Point-to-Point Encryption Solution Requirements," which defines technical and operational requirements for the safe handling of credit card information.

Increasingly Intuitive Device for Gaining Insight into People's Heart

Panasonic's one-of-a-kind Human Body Communication System HiT provides a new type of communication, which facilitates communication among individuals simply by coming in contact with each other. When shaking hands, the device worn on one's wrist starts transmitting data, prompting communication by displaying on a tablet his/her information stored on a server, such as the profile and true thoughts that are difficult to express when meeting someone for the first time. This product was adopted by ZWEI, one of the largest matchmaking agency in Japan, and helped it achieve a high matching rate, double that of normal matchmaking events. The development team achieved substantial commercialization in less than half a year after the start of project planning through an open innovation with an external partner company.
