Our Story: Connecting People and Technology Through Contactless

Since our launch in 1997, G2K has been dedicated to making everyday tasks simpler by connecting people to digital services. From payments to access control and authentication, our contactless technology enhances the way businesses and individuals interact with the world.

Headquartered in Dorset, United Kingdom, we’ve built our foundation as a company of engineers, with technical innovation at the core of everything we do. All our research, development, and manufacturing are done in-house, under one roof, enabling us to offer flexibility and the highest standards of quality. Whether building elegant off-the-shelf solutions or custom technologies for unique client needs, we combine practical innovation with reliable support to deliver tangible results.

Today, we supply NFC, EMV, PCI, and ITSO-compliant smart card readers and OEM products, alongside a diverse range of software and cloud services. Our solutions empower merchants, technology integrators, and organizations across industries, including EV charging, vending, gaming, transportation, retail, and education. Whether working directly with end clients or partnering with technology providers, we deliver efficient solutions and expert support to meet business challenges.
