Main characteristics
• KaNest®-ICC card simulator is a software to install on your PC.
• All simulated cards are stored on the PC for an instant access.
• KaNest®-ICC card simulator uses an external probe to insert or wave EMV cards.
The probe avoids tough test cards manipulations. It provides instant results and an easy management of a large number of simulated test cards.
• The data exchanged with the terminal are displayed on screen in real time.
• Instant results with green or red color code are given at the end of the test.
• Results are stored on the PC for an immediate or later analysis.
Increase your card testing speed, reduce your test workload.
Key Features
• Contact & contactless smartcard test.
• Full multi application.
• Off-the-shelves recognized Test Suites.
• Support of EMV, GP, e-purse, domestic schemes, healthcare cards, e-ID...
• Support the Canadian Flag (ASF).
• Spy mode between EMV Card and Terminal available.
• Remote control capabilities.
KaNest® Remote Control Options
KaNest® Remote Control is an API for other Windows applications to remotely controle KaNest® or KaNest®-ICC applications:
start test case, collect results, etc.
KaNest®-ICC Spy Option (ICC-S module)
The spy option is a hardware spy. The physical card is inserted into the probe and the probe is linked to the card reader. KaNest®-ICC can then spy on the data exchanged between the card and the terminal. Captured EMV data is checked and stored.
Warning: this option is not available with all probes.
KaNest®-ICC Card Editor Option (ICC-I module)
The Card Editor option allows the making of test cards directly by entering card data or by capturing and then customizing a physical card.
This option requires a standard PCSC card reader.

An industry reference
KaNest®-ICC is recognized as the state-of-the-art simulator for interoperability testing.
It simulates most of the test cards provided by payment schemes. It also supports multi-application and GlobalPlatform environments. It is in fact used to test the Common Access Card of the US Department of Defense.
KaNest®-ICC EMV Level 2 Terminal Test Suite is used by EMVCo accredited laboratories for the EMV certification and EMV devices compliance evaluation.
