NFC tag reader/writer mode: The computer reads and/or writes digital
information from or to an NFC tag.
Peer-to-Peer (P2P) mode: The computer uses Android Beam and/or Bluetooth
technology to transfer screen content (e.g., a picture, contact information, Web
page url, or file) between NFC enabled devices.
NFC card emulation mode: The computer emulates an NFC card (smart card)
that an external card reader can access. You can download and install apps for
card emulation mode from the Google Play Store. Some examples include
digital wallets (e-wallets) offered by your bank or credit card company and
Google Pay.
The app you install determines the type of emulation mode used: Card Emula-
tion with a Secure Element or Host-based Card Emulation. Secure element use
is common for financial transactions that require a high level of security in
order to provide a secure memory and execution environment for running cus-
tom smart card applets and storing your personal information (e.g., account
information and credentials).
