For many years, Smart Cards have promised to increase security and enhance relationships between cards issuers and their customers. Today, contactless smart cards (transponders) offer even greater convenience to customers. However, these benefits are only realized if smart card programs are:
- Planned properly - designed with the interests of customers, issuers and other stakeholders in mind,
- Implemented flawlessly - on-time, in-budget and meeting all pre-established targets.
NorthCard's principals have been involved in smart card planning, pilot projects and roll-outs for a combined 20 years. Our experience has included:
- Developing Business Cases supporting the launch of secure credit and debit cards.
- Supporting strategy development for a Transponder-based payment product.
- Managing the Implementation of key components of two multi-bank smart card pilot projects.
- Provide Sales and Implementation Support for national clients involved in pilot projects.
- Developing testing and certification requirements consistent with EMV Standards.
- Participating in smart card Joint Ventures with card associations, financial institutions and vendors.
- Supporting a major bank's entrée in vertical markets through Closed System Smart Cards.
