EMV is specification issued by MasterCard and Visa, adopted by American Express and JCB. This specification covers hardware and software requirements. These EMV specifications do not describe in detail how a terminal can connect to the acquirer's systems. Acquirers have issued a domestic protocol specification and a few additional clarifications. The terminal will be certified against the global EMV requirements and the domestic specifications as described in the BAP and C-TAP protocol documents.  Both specifications are meant when referring to EMV on the present page,
