Banking App?

Hello,

I was wondering is there any banking app has been made with Tizen Web for Gear S2?

If not, why? Is there any security limitation or something?

Any comment?

 

Thanks

Hi,

I could see several bank applications which are able to pay money using nfc in Gear AppStore and I'm not sure which was made of web application.

But I think that web application can perform bank job using nfc as well.

You can use payment gateway api or any web api provided by banks for your app (Gear S2 can connect to the Internet and do web api calls). These web apis uses ssl for secure communications so it's usually pretty safe.

Gear S2 web app allows you to set policies in your web app. In your "config.xml" go to "Policy" tab and add the web api url(s) you will be using. That way no unauthorised web requests will be made and the app will be secured.

Also remember that how you plan to provide security in your app also depends how you design the architecture.

I also heard that Samsung pay is coming to Gear S2, so lots of possibilities.

Hello,

Some info about NFC and Secure Element:

https://developer.tizen.org/development/guides/web-application/tizen-features/network/nfc

But NFC and Secure Element are optional api and need to check support of a particular device.
