HID Global teams with Dynamic Card Solutions to provide instant issuance

Tuesday, March 25, 2008

HID Global has teamed with Dynamic Card Solutions (DCS) to launch the CardWizard FCP 20/20 instant issuance financial card printing system. The system is aimed at banks, credit unions and retailers for on-site instant issuance of debit, credit and prepaid cards. HID’s line of Fargo’s HDP functionality offers superior card image quality, essential in the financial card industry.


The CardWizard FCP 20/20 provides card issuers with the capability to do full card personalization including full-color, high definition, over-the-edge front and back graphics on the fly. That means multiple pre-printed card stocks are no longer required at the branch to instantly issue a variety of card types. This simplifies administration, branch operations, and card production. Each card will be printed on-demand starting from “branded white stock” that only has the pre-printed association brand, holographic foil stamp, security signature panel, and CVV2/CVC2 security box. [end]

CardWizard 5.2 enables financial institutions to issue magstripe, contact, contactless and EMV payment cards in the branch or back office, allowing customers to instantly receive new cards at account openings, or get replacement cards in case of loss or theft.
