Line 49:
Most majors banks of Belgium (including [[Belfius]], [[BNP Paribas Fortis]], [[ING Group|ING]], [[KBC Bank]]) provide such a card reader. It is used for two main purposes:
* Authenticating to the bank
* Signing a transaction. For example in eCommerce (3DS) to buy goods or service on an online merchant, or to perform a [[bank transfer]]. The merchant would ask for the bank card information, then redirect the user to the bank website where a webpage is displayed with instructions to follow to verify the transaction. Then the bank redirects the user to the merchant page with a success or a failure.
The device is equipped with an optional USB port, those two operations can be used without connecting the cable on a computer.
