Al Bilad Bank, a Shari'ah-based financial organisation, is deploying the Dexxis Instant Issuance solution for EMV payment cards in over 120 branches throughout Saudi Arabia. Gemalto's end-to-end solution encompassing EMV Dynamic Data Authentication (DDA) high-end security smart cards, on-the-spot card personalisation and issuance solution will allow Al Bilad to issue up to 2,000 cards per day.

Gemalto's solution is customised in Arabic, allowing staff at Al Bilad branches to issue new cards to any customer in less than three minutes. By eliminating the need for courier services, Al Bilad guarantees that all cards are delivered in person, while also optimising costs. The Gemalto solution uses the EvolisDualys card printer which encodes both chips and magnetic stripes and also embosses the card body with the holders' personal data managed by Dexxis.

"We have already successfully been issuing EMV debit cards from over 120 of our branches using Gemalto's instant issuance solution and will soon be extending it to credit cards as a next step," said Rashedabdullah Al-Othman, Chief Information Officer, Al Bilad. "The personal nature of this enhanced delivery system also allows us to build stronger relationships with our customers and simplify the migration from magstripe to EMV cards."
