Install

dependencies:
  fintech_card_core: ^0.1.4

import 'package:fintech_card_core/fintech_card_core.dart';

Quick start

final controller = CardReaderController();

controller.stateStream.listen((state) {
  switch (state) {
    case CardReaderSuccessState(:final data):
      print(data.maskedPan); // **** **** **** 1234
    case CardReaderErrorState(:final exception):
      print(exception.message);
    default:
      break;
  }
});

await controller.startNfcScan();
// await controller.startOcrScan();
// await controller.submitManualInput(
//   pan: '4111111111111111',
//   expiryDate: '12/28',
//   cvv: '123',
// );

controller.dispose();

Camera overlay

final card = await CardScannerOverlay.show(
  context,
  controller: controller,
  enableCoachingHints: true, // timed lighting / torch tips
  sideLightHint: 'Hold the card in side lighting',
  torchHint: 'Move away from bright light — turn on the torch',
);

Smart card form

SmartCardInput(
  controller: controller,
  scheme: CardInputScheme.autoDetect, // or humoAndUzcard, americanExpress, …
)

iOS NFC setup

Host apps must add NFC entitlements and Info.plist keys. See doc/IOS_NFC_SETUP.md.

Important: Standard CoreNFC (NFCTagReaderSession) does not allow payment-related AIDs. Android IsoDep can read EMV payment cards; the same card generally cannot be read on iOS without Apple’s separate payment NFC programs.

Privacy

This plugin reads card PANs and related fields on-device. Do not log full PANs, persist them insecurely, or send them to analytics. Prefer CardData.maskedPan for display.
