Collis adds French CB “Carte Bancaire” card validation to Collis EMV PVT
Collis announces its implementation of the French domestic debit scheme - Carte Bancaire - module to the Collis EMV Personalisation Validation Tool.
Collis announces today that it has implemented a new module for French CB contact cards in the Collis EMV Personalisation Validation Tool. This new CB Module in the Collis EMV PVT covers the Groupement des Cartes Bancaires card personalisation specification. Contactless CB cards will be supported in the near future.
The Collis EMV Personalisation Validation Tool (Collis EMV PVT) is a market leading tool designed to check if your cards are personalised correctly. The Collis EMV PVT (contact & contactless) gives you reliable quality control over the personalisation process. As a Card Issuer or Personalisation Bureau, you can ensure that your cards have been developed according to the mandatory card personalisation regulations from the payment associations. You are able to check the consistency between magnetic stripe data, contact chip data, contactless chip data and embossing data. The Collis EMV PVT has an easy-to-use user interface and is customisable. It can be used during development and production. This helps to ensure that you have correctly personalised and interoperable cards.
Kevin Murphy, Business Development Manager, Collis France, comments: "The addition of this new module to the Collis EMV PVT, together with opening our Collis France office earlier this year confirms Collis’ commitment to the French market. We are delighted to be able to offer this tool with the CB module to the French market – the home of the smart card.”
