Oberthur Technologies awarded Discover certification for contactless stickers

Wednesday 25 November 2009 15:00 CET | News

French-based security and smartcard technology provider Oberthur Technologies has received certification from US credit card issuer Discover Financial Services for its contactless sticker product, called the FlyBuy Sticker.

As a result, Discovers credit, debit and prepaid issuers may now use FlyBuy Sticker for their contactless sticker programs. Discover’s type approval process ensures that the Discover Zip contactless payment application can operate properly on the FlyBuy Sticker and that it is also interoperable with Discover-certified payment terminals.

In early 2010, Heartland Payment Systems, Discovers payments acquirer, will enter an agreement with Oberthur Technologies on product rollouts. Oberthur Technologies provides card-based solutions, software and applications that include SIM and multi-application smart cards and consultancy services. The product line of the company includes payment cards, mobile communications, identity cards and systems.
