iPIN and Gemplus Partner to Provide the Trust Model for Web and Wireless Transactions - Brief Article

Wireless Internet, August, 2001

iPIN, an e-payment technology company, announced a partnership with Gemplus, a provider of smart card-based solutions, to jointly develop advanced security features for Web and wireless transactions.

The partnership extends both companies' authentication and payment technology applications to offer global banks and mobile operators greater transaction security for their customers. The agreement will encompass marketing, sales, and implementation with joint partners.

Applications for smart card technology have broadened into phone card services, mass transit and toll, PayTV, and also wireless communications. With these applications comes the need for secure payment architecture behind the authentication device.

This partnership fuses Gemplus' strong authentication technology based on smart card wireless telephony (SIM card) with iPIN's flexible payment and settlement solution that can be applied to the wide forum of smart card applications.
