QR-Codes

I found they are charging_station with QR code as stated in https://www.data.gouv.fr/fr/datasets/infrastructures-de-recharge-pour-vehicules-electriques-irve-1/ what is the guideline ?

If you can use the QR-Code to pay directly, without having to sign up, then that means that no authentication is required. Tag authentication:none=yes and use appropriate payment=* tag(s). --DaniloB (talk) 15:59, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

RFID vs NFC

In NZ all charge.net chargers accept an RFID tag. Is this the same as "nfc", or as "membership_card"? Or should a new "rfid" type be created?

Also it is possible to authenticate via a website, should "authentication:website" be added? This may apply to be above question about QR codes also.

I have revised the page, to make the difference between authentication and payment more clear. The "nfc" and "membership_card" keys have been replaced with "contactless". --DaniloB (talk) 15:59, 25 July 2021 (UTC)

sub-keys

Suffixes could really be compared with payment:*=* , such as authentication:short_message=* vs payment:sms=*. -- Kovposch (talk) 05:24, 26 March 2020 (UTC)

How to add a store only accecible to those with an e-ID

(This is a continuation from Talk:Key:access#How to add a store only accecible to those with an e-ID)

Here in Sweden, there is a fairly large staff-less convenience store chain called 24 Sju (“24 Seven”). While basically anyone is allowed to enter the store, they must first unlock the door using their BankID app (which function as an eID). This is not really a restriction for Swedes, as 99.9% of all adult Swedes have the app, but it’s an impassable restriction for any non-Swede.

So how should I add this type of authentication, which is required to enter the store? From what I can see, none of the established keys fit with the current situation. While authentication=app seems plausible, it could be confused with some non-existing app specific to that chain. Should I create a new key, e.g. authentication=eID or authentication=BankID (Sweden), or is there a better method? –Christoffre (talk) 00:03, 12 August 2025 (UTC)
