Dynamic Card Solutions partners with Threshold to deliver Canadian EMV cards

Monday, October 12, 2009

Dynamic Card Solutions, an Englewood, Colo.-based provider of instant issuance solutions, has partnered with Ontario-based Threshold Financial Technologies to give financial institutions access to Dynamic’s CardWizard software.

Threshold provides payment processing, ATM and card issuing solutions to more than 65 financial institutions throughout Canada. This new partnership allows Threshold’s card issuing clients to transition from magnetic stripe cards to chip and PIN cards, offering their cardholders in-branch PIN selection, PIN change and personalized chip cards.

Additional benefits include the ability to replace lost or stolen cards on the spot. The CardWizard software can personalize cards, program the chip, encode the magnetic stripe, and print or emboss cardholder details while optionally activating the card for immediate use. [end]
