N.J. credit union taps Datacard

Tuesday, October 11, 2011

Datacard Group announced that First Financial Federal Credit Union has selected Datacard CardWizard issuance software and Datacard FCP 20/20 financial card printers for its instant debit and ATM card issuance program.

First Financial Federal Credit Union has implemented the Datacard instant card issuance software and associated hardware in its five branch locations around New Jersey. Immediately after opening a new account or requesting a replacement card, members leave the branch with a permanent, personalized, unembossed and activated ATM or debit card.


After members select either an image from the gallery or if they have uploaded an approved custom photo to use for their card background, the CardWizard issuance software transfers the personalization data fully encrypted to the FCP 20/20 financial card printer, which quickly and securely prints in high-definition color onto both sides of white blank card stock. The member can then begin utilizing their card immediately.

Instant card issuance and activation is part of Secure Issuance Anywhere infrastructure from Datacard Group, enabling financial institutions the ability to issue secure cards anytime. Secure Issuance Anywhere integrates central issuance, instant issuance and mobile issuance into a single, unified program, giving banks flexibility and security when issuing cards. [end]
