Using this new platform, branch personnel can securely personalize any contactless form factor—whether it is an embedded NFC chip on a mobile device or provided as a contactless sticker from a manufacturer, such as First Data’s GO-Tag or Oberthur Technologies’ FlyBuy sticker, that can be affixed to a mobile phone, MP3 Player, PDA or key ring. No over-the-air personalization is required, and because Perso-to-Go supports instant activation, the personalized device can be immediately used for contactless purchases.

The technology also meets worldwide security requirements for EMV specifications and complies with all Visa and MasterCard security recommendations.

Current CardWizard customers can simply upgrade their existing card issuance system to support the Perso-to-Go platform. Alternatively, the system can be implemented independent of a card issuance program and used solely for mobile payment personalization.
