These applications include formats for EMV, a variety of additional smart card formats. By utilizing these products, customers can easily and seamlessly migrate their payment cards and credentials from magnetic stripe to EMV-enabled formats. Included in this product set are:

“Our new Adaptive Issuance Suite allows us to provide customers with a solution that not only gives them the secure issuance they have come to expect from Entrust Datacard, but also the ability to easily deploy the solutions across their production fleet with ease and flexibility,” said Dan Good, vice president, bureau solutions for Entrust Datacard. “This modular solution will allow our customers to create an issuance environment that best meets their needs today, knowing that should those needs change in the future, their issuance products will adapt with them.”

The Adaptive Issuance Suite applications function across all industries and markets and can be customized based on the individual need of each customer. Additionally, if a customer chooses to change their operational issuance model, the product suite can adapt and scale as necessary. This allows the overall issuance process to continue at status quo, thereby allowing for no lost uptime or disruption to operations.
