WISE
Proposing independent payment solutions for domestic networks and closed loop markets
The inexorable rise in card and mobile payments has provided a real challenge to the domestic business of financial institutions and for closed-loop operators, such as retailers or transport operators. While current technical specifications developed by international schemes may not perfectly suit all their requirements, controlling costs and payment architectures is tough for companies that use proprietary technology.
Meanwhile, retailers are under growing pressure to move from magnetic stripe to chip-based solutions to increase the security of their payment/loyalty cards and are looking for an open and independent solution.
IDEMIA assists payment actors globally in the establishment of independent EMV ecosystems by providing WISE, an implementation of an open industry standard which the company has helped develop as a founder of the White Label Alliance. The WLA framework is vendor-independent and covers the full range of devices – contact/contactless cards, terminals and mobiles. Fully interoperable with the EMVCo standard, it also offers a reduced time to market, courtesy of its technology readiness, support from industry, open architecture and compatibility with the installed device base.
