Oberthur Technologie is now supplying BRD multi-application payment cards. This dual interface payment card featuring the latest applications from payment schemes, as well as built-in capabilities for transport, access control, PKI or biometry. BRD, a subsidiary of Société Générale and market leader in Romania, was already a pioneer in contactless payment in this country. Capitalising on their leading position, BRD’s willingness was to bring even more value to their customers, through contactless payment and related technology. In this context, they chose Oberthur Technologies to launch the MultiPass Transport card, in collaboration with RATB and Metrorex, the transport operators of Bucharest. Cardholders can now easily wave their MultiPass Transport card in front of validators in the bus, in the tram or in the metro. In addition, this MasterCard Paypass® card can also be used for contact or contactless payment.
