Glasgow Subway Ticketing wins Prestigious Award

August 2014

Glasgow Subway Ticketing wins Prestigious Award

– Nevis Technologies ‘Bramble’ ticketing proves a hit –

The Glasgow Subway Smart Ticketing system has been recognised at the Scottish Transport Awards by winning the ‘Excellence in Technology and Innovation’ award.

The awards, which were held at the Raddison Blu in Glasgow, are designed to recognise innovation, excellence and progress across all areas of transport and are regarded as the highest industry accolades in Scotland.

The Glasgow Subway smartcard ticketing system was launched in October 2013 as part of the Subway’s £300m modernisation programme. The aim for the new ticket system was to be easy to use for passengers whilst offering greater choice on payment options and the ability to offer new flexible ticket types and special offers.

The tap in/tap out system provides a complete database of journey and ticket sales information, allowing for improved planning and service provision.

The ‘Bramble’ smartcard, based on the UK open standard known as ITSO, is capable of being used on different modes of travel and holds stored value for pay-as-you-go journeys. The smartcards and software that supports the Subway ticketing deployment is provided by Nevis Technologies.

David Braddock, Director of Nevis Technologies said:

“This latest award recognises the first implementation of Bramble ticketing through Nevis Technologies. We introduced the technology on the Subway as a starting point but our aim is to roll out the Bramble Smartcard across all modes of transport in Strathclyde and offer customers a truly seamless travel experience.

We are delighted that the deployment of the ticketing system has been recognised, it is especially gratifying given high profile smartcard schemes that were competing in the same category. The Subway Smartcard, also known as the ‘Bramble card’ has been developed by Rambus Ecebs and delivered via Nevis through a unique private/public partner endeavour which brings together a wealth of expertise from both the transport and smart technology industries. It has already attracted almost 30,000 customers, despite only being available for the past five months.”

Wave and Bell ID Partner to Combat Online Payment Fraud

EMV card-present transactions enabled for E-Commerce by integrating TPM technology.

Wave Systems Corp. (NASDAQ: WAVX) announced it is partnering with chip lifecycle management solutions company, Bell ID, to offer a joint solution aimed at reducing online payment fraud. The solution will be marketed primarily to card issuing banks, as well as online merchants, governments, and enterprises worldwide.

Using Bell ID’s Trusted Service Manager and Secure Element in The Cloud (SEiTC) server, alongside Wave’s ERAS for TPM management and Wave’s endpoint identity and monitoring expertise, the combined offering provides robust protection for transactions and stored payments. The companies have executed a letter of intent and anticipate the signing of a definitive agreement in August.

The incident rate of card-not-present (CNP) fraud has been growing steadily over the past several years.  According to a recent FICO Banking Analytics Blog, CNP fraud now accounts for close to half of all credit card fraud. Countries that have already adopted the EMV® card specification have seen CNP fraud rates increase. In the United States, CNP fraud is expected to rise significantly over the next eighteen months, as the EMV standard is put into effect. The EMV directive, which implements a global standard for a secure chip-based payment application, will make merchants liable for any fraud resulting from transactions on systems that are not EMV-capable.

“Wave’s robust product portfolio is very complementary to Bell ID’s  strongly positioned solution set in the financial services market,” said Bill Solms, CEO, Wave Systems. “We see the EMV transition creating high demand for more secure transaction capabilities, and are confident that together we can provide financial institutions with a comprehensive solution for payment authorization and storage.”

“Bell ID has been a pioneer in developing and delivering cloud-based payment platforms” adds Pat Curran, Executive Chairman at Bell ID. “We also have extensive experience in delivering EMV solutions globally and have witnessed fraud transition online as point-of-sale terminals in face-to-face transactions become more secure. We are therefore delighted to extend our offering with Wave to provide a secure online transaction and storage payment solution, which will mitigate against an expected rise in online fraud and provide a trusted link between device identity and internet services.”

Bell ID Joins Mobey Forum

Offers HCE Expertise To Global Industry Association

Token management specialist, Bell ID, has become a member of Mobey Forum, joining  other industry players in empowering banks to take the lead in mobile money. As a new Associate Member, Bell ID will lend its expertise in host card emulation (HCE) to the work of the association’s Business Workgroup as discussions on HCE as a route to market for bank-led mobile payment solutions continue to gain traction across the industry.

Bell ID’s chip lifecycle management software enables banks, mobile network operators and other entities to manage mobile near field communication services and devices, in addition to EMV chip payment cards and other tokens.

“HCE is receiving a lot of press at the moment and is a big talking point for our members,” adds Sirpa Nordlund, Executive Director of Mobey Forum. “Bell ID is a recognized specialist in this area so we welcome its expertise and contribution to further the understanding of the Mobey Forum membership.”

Pat Curran, Executive Chairman of Bell ID, comments: “With HCE coming to the fore, the time was right to join Mobey Forum. With the payment systems working to bring standards forward and Google withdrawing support for physical secure elements, HCE is no longer hype but a credible alternative route to market. As one of the first to market with a cloud-based payments platform, and a background in EMV card management and trusted service management, we look forward to sharing our knowledge and expertise with Mobey Forum.”

Bell ID will contribute to the discussion around HCE at Mobey Day 2014, 7-8 October in Barcelona. Interested to learn more about HCE in general? Watch our short explanatory video.

Bell ID Appoints Michelle Lehouck as U.S. EMV Product Director

Bell ID is pleased to announce the appointment of Michelle Lehouck as EMV Product Director for its U.S. division. As the U.S. migration to EMV chip technology gains momentum, Michelle will be responsible for maintaining and expanding Bell ID’s EMV activity in the region by offering even greater on-the-ground support to the company’s expanding U.S. client base.

Bell ID is a software company providing banks with lifecycle management solutions for EMV smart cards, their related applications and cryptographic keys. Its solutions enable banks to manage and control any EMV token, such as contact and contactless cards as well as applications on near field communication (NFC) enabled mobile phones, once they have been issued.

Michelle joins Bell ID with over 15 years of industry knowledge gained with companies such as STMicroelectronics and CPI Card Group. With practical experience of migrating European banks to EMV chip payment technology, she brings with her significant expertise of all aspects of EMV market strategy. This includes understanding the impact of implementing EMV on a bank’s infrastructure as well as the critical success factors which need to be met when managing such a project.

“Michelle’s appointment comes at an important time for the U.S. marketplace,” comments Pat Curran, Executive Chairman at Bell ID. “Now that doubt surrounding the Durbin Amendment has gone, issuers are moving full-steam-ahead with EMV deployments and the market is turning to technology providers and consultants that have extensive experience of supporting migration projects. Michelle’s wealth of knowledge about regional U.S. requirements combined with her own and Bell ID’s EMV expertise, places our U.S. team in a strong position to offer unrivalled support to U.S. banks.”

EnStream Selects Bell ID’s TSM Software

Dutch provider of chip lifecycle management solutions, Bell ID, has been selected by EnStream – a joint venture of Bell Mobility, TELUS and Rogers Communications – to provision and manage secure applications on near field communication (NFC)-enabled devices in Canada. The technology enables EnStream to operate as a Trusted Service Manager (TSM), and will drive further deployment of NFC-based applications and promote consumer adoption of mobile services across Canada.

Bell ID® Trusted Service Manager is a vendor neutral software platform used by TSMs. The solution provides over-the-air lifecycle management of applications, cryptographic keys and secure elements (SEs) on NFC devices. It enables TSMs – such as EnStream – to supply service providers, including banks, transit operators and merchants, with the means to securely provision, store and update their credentials and applications on NFC capable mobile devices.

EnStream has been established to act as a hub, interconnecting any Canadian issuer with all mobile network operators making Bell ID’s vendor neutrality especially attractive.

Almis Ledas, Chief Operating Officer at EnStream, comments: “Bell ID Trusted Service Manager was chosen since it fully aligns with industry standards and is scalable and adaptable to future business and technical requirements. It is also form factor neutral, supporting applications on any type of SE. The flexibility offered by the solution ensures that we can support different implementation models and provide a wide range of capabilities to our customers.”

Pat Curran, Executive Chairman at Bell ID, adds: “Bell ID has proven success in delivering large scale EMV token deployments for key Canadian banks. We are delighted to now be working with EnStream to also share our global TSM expertise in Canada to advance the NFC landscape. The selection of Bell ID’s solution by EnStream confirms our position as a leading vendor independent TSM software provider.”
