Advanced Card Systems Ltd. (ACS, a global leader in authentication and payment technologies) has announced that its NFC readers are now compatible with My Number Cards for smartphones, achieving a significant milestone in Japan's digital ID ecosystem.
The My Number Card is an identification document issued by the Japanese government, assigned to each citizen with a personal identification number, and is widely used for administrative procedures, healthcare, taxation, and obtaining various certificates. Starting from April 2026, five models of ACS's NFC readers — WalletMate II, AquaGuard, ACR1552U, ACR1555U, and ACR1581U — have passed the compatibility tests for My Number Cards for smartphones. This will further enhance the role of ACS products in the field of digital identification in Japan.
ACS's goal has always been to create technologies that balance convenience and security. With the compatibility for My Number Cards for smartphones, all citizens will be able to access digital administrative services more smoothly and smartly.
