The work of the CIR Technical Working Group started in 2003 with the objective of harmonising EMV implementations on cards. Based on this preparatory work, and with the support of the CIR Technical Working Group, EMVCo set up the Common Core Working Group (CCWG) which produced the EMVCo Common Core Definitions (CCD) and the EMVCo Common Payment Application (CPA) Specification, which allow a common EMV implementation on cards for all payment systems.
