Around 165 Evolis Card Printers deployed at Bank Asya local branches

Bank Asya decided to decentralized card delivery. They selected the Evolis Dualys , the Evolis Dual-sided printer. Around 165 printers are currently deployed throughout the Turkish Bank's network (160 branch offices). This production process has a great benefit: instant issuance.

The customer fills in a form and within 15 minutes, receives a personalized bank card.

The bank’s logo is preprinted on cards that are loaded in the printer’s feeder. In less than a minute, Dualys prints the holder’s account number, name, and picture, encodes the magnetic stripe and enables four other features in the chip:

  • EMV with contact payments,
  • EMV without contact (for preauthorized and contactless payments),
  • Loyalty (data for payment of transit fares …),
  • Mifare (payment of tolls with the KGS system).
