CHIP TECHNOLOGY
Chip cards are the default technology for payments cards today. They provide much greater transaction security than old-style magnetic stripe cards by using a microprocessor embedded in the plastic card to store and process data. The EMV chip provides strong security features and they are tamper-resistant and extremely difficult to clone.
The three main types of chip in use today for EMV payments cards accommodate increasingly secure methods for offline data authentication to check whether the card being used is genuine. These are:
- SDA (Static Data Authentication)
- DDA (Dynamic Data Authentication)
- CDA (Combined Data Authentication)
LOYALTY CARDS
Happy customers are loyal customers. That’s important in an increasingly competitive retail market if you want to continue to maintain and develop market share. So it’s crucial that your loyalty cards reflect all the reasons your customers love your retail brand.
Loyalty cards present many choices, including matching key fobs and a variety of substrates. Whatever format you choose, whether you need to mail them out or distribute them in-store, however you want to package them, you need a card manufacturing and personalisation partner that has the experience and flexibility to maintain your brand values.
