AMSTERDAM, Netherlands, Oct. 31, 2014 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) –

 

Gemalto (Euronext NL0000400653 GTO), the world leader in digital security, provided SHAZAM with in-depth EMV consulting and training for its U.S. migration planning. SHAZAM is a member-owned and -controlled electronic funds transfer (EFT) network, delivering payment solutions to financial institutions across the U.S. for nearly 40 years. Gemalto's customized Allynis training services helped guide SHAZAM through its full-scale network support of EMV.

Gemalto's consultants create a tailored consulting session based on the customer's size, needs and areas of interest.

 

"Gemalto's consulting services helped with our orientation to EMV. The joint effort was instrumental in helping us get our planning started correctly. As we transitioned into our design and development process, Gemalto continued to provide value by validating our approach and technical specifications," said Terry Dooley, Executive Vice President & CIO of SHAZAM. "We chose to work with Gemalto based on their 20 years of experience in global EMV migrations.
