Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Paperback. You tap your card, the terminal beeps, and two seconds later you walk away with your coffee. In that heartbeat, a message has raced from the shop to your bank and back, crossing continents, clearing fraud checks, and settling a promise of money between strangers who will never meet. How does something so complex happen so fast, so cheaply, and so reliably that we never think about it? This book pulls back the curtain on the hidden global network behind every swipe, tap, and click.Edward Callenford follows a single payment through the whole machine: the players in one tap-you, the merchant, the acquiring and issuing banks, and the card networks; the authorization sprint that circles the planet in under two seconds; the quiet overnight work of clearing and settlement; the tireless algorithms hunting for fraud; and the chips, tokens, and standards that keep card numbers secret. Every step is grounded in the real institutions and documented milestones that built modern payments, from the first charge plates to EMV chips, tokenization, and the ISO and PCI rulebooks that hold it all together.Featuring twenty-four original diagrams that turn tangled data flows into clear pictures, this is a book for the curious traveler, the small-business owner, the fintech newcomer, and anyone who has ever wondered what really happens after the beep. You will never look at your wallet-or your phone-the same way again. This item is printed on demand.
