Eliminating credit card fraud is the driving factor behind the global migration to EMV (Europay Mastercard® Visa®). Although migrating to the EMV standard is beneficial to financial institutions and their clients alike, most financial institutions are finding the migration process both a daunting and confusing task. That's where NBS can help.

Migrating to single and multi-application EMV cards requires an issuance solution that integrates sophisticated data preparation, security, key management and EMV configuration control. Unlike standard magnetic stripe cards, the issuance of EMV cards requires the preparation of specialized personalization scripts, application and card keys and issuer certificates. NBS can aid in the whole EMV migration/compliance process - we have over 90 operational EMV installations worldwide - our experience and technical savvy is second to none.

So, whether your business is a large financial institution centrally producing high volumes of debit/credit cards or a small credit union offering debit cards instantly to your members, we have the software, hardware and in-house experts to make the migration simple. Both our distributed / remote / branch instant issuance and central issuance solutions give your business the flexibility to meet your growing business needs as well as ensuring complete EMV compliance.
