# StoreAndForwardPaymentCardReaderSession

The object you use to start reading a contactless payment or loyalty card in Store and Forward mode.

## Declaration

```swift
class StoreAndForwardPaymentCardReaderSession
```

## Overview

Overview Use a StoreAndForwardPaymentCardReaderSession object to read payment and loyalty cards from a properly configured device. You don’t create this object directly. Instead, you obtain one by calling the prepareStoreAndForward() method of your PaymentCardReader object, which returns a session after the successful configuration of the device. Maintain a strong reference to a session object for the duration of the card-reading process. You may use the same session object to perform multiple read operations, but you may perform only one read operation at a time
