Collis adds French Carte Bancaire card validation

Collis has implemented a new module for French CB contact cards in the Collis EMV Personalisation Validation Tool. This new CB Module in the Collis EMV PVT covers the Groupement des Cartes Bancaires card personalisation specification. Contactless CB cards will be supported in the near future.

The Collis EMV Personalisation Validation Tool is a tool designed to check if cards are personalised correctly. The Collis EMV PVT is intended to provide quality control over the personalisation process.

Kevin Murphy, business development manager, Collis France, comments: "The addition of this new module to the Collis EMV PVT, together with opening our Collis France office earlier this year confirms Collis' commitment to the French market. We are delighted to be able to offer this tool with the CB module to the French market - the home of the smart card."
