Abstract

A reader device may include a midrange wireless transceiver, a controller coupled to the midrange wireless transceiver, and a memory coupled to the controller. The memory may store executable code, which when executed by the controller, causes the reader device to implement various operations including maintaining a transaction service attributes database in the memory. The operations may also include broadcasting a beacon including a transaction service indicator at a periodic interval using the midrange wireless transceiver, receiving a connection request from a communication device, and establishing a wireless connection with the communication device. The operations may further include performing an application selection process with the communication device, performing application data processing with the communication device, and performing authorization request processing for the communication device.
