Oberthur Technologies Opens Canadian Card Processing Centre

Published on:

­Smartcard vendor, Oberthur Technologies has finalized plans to open a service center in Ottawa, Canada. The facility will enable the personalization of secure devices and documents (including magnetic stripe and EMV cards as well as SIM cards and identification credentials) for customers throughout Canada.

Oberthur Technologies is currently supplying contactless cards to Montreal's transit system and SIM cards to major Canadian telecom operators.

"Oberthur Technologies' proven global ability to meet customer needs in the payment, telecom and ID markets coupled with the booming Canadian demand in these key segments are at the center of our decision to open a facility in Canada," said Martin Ferenczi, Managing Director of the Americas Region at Oberthur Technologies.

The new facility will be fully operational with payment association certifications in Q4 of this year and ready to produce Visa, MasterCard and Interac cards. Oberthur Technologies is therefore expanding further its presence in North American with services centers located in Los Angeles, CA and Chantilly, VA as well as its EMV capable manufacturing site in Exton (PA).
