Kobil opTAN touch is a secure and convenient device that allows you to generate transaction numbers (TANs) for online banking. It features both optical and manual TAN generation methods. The optical process involves holding the device up to your computer screen to transmit data, while the manual process requires you to enter information using the device's buttons.
