Trüb AG has expanded its portfolio of EMV smart card solutions with CombOS CPA. This new product complies with the SEPA specifications and is aimed at private label cards.
The CombOS portfolio of operating systems developed by Trüb for EMV-compliant smart card solutions is being expanded with CombOS CPA (Common Payment Application). CombOS CPA implements the latest EMV CCD and CPA specifications for payment applications in compliance with SEPA. It is especially destined for private label card operations, but can also be used for ATM, debit or credit cards with either the MasterCard or Visa payment solutions.
CombOS CPA supports e-banking authentication and prepaid or loyalty applications. The newest addition to the CombOS portfolio is the first on the SLE78 chip programme from Infineon using Integrity Guard for security standards.
A cost-effective card production is made possible by the compact chip design with enough personalization memory for future developments. Furthermore, the new CombOS CPA chip can be personalized very efficiently using EMV CPS. Six Card Solutions, an issuer of debit cards in Switzerland, will be deploying CombOS CPA for Maestro and V Pay cards starting from 2012.
