China UnionPay Awards Second LOA to Biometric Payment Card Featuring IDEX Biometrics' Fingerprint Sensor & Biometric Technology

China UnionPay Awards Second LOA to Biometric Payment Card Featuring IDEX Biometrics' Fingerprint Sensor & Biometric Technology

Oslo, Norway - 12 February 2021 - IDEX Biometrics ASA, a leading provider of

advanced fingerprint identification and authentication solutions, today

announces that China UnionPay (CUP) has issued a second letter of approval (LOA)

for a biometric payment card that contains IDEX's fingerprint sensor and

biometric solutions. The card is manufactured by Goldpac Group Ltd. (Goldpac).

The LOA is the formal acknowledgement by CUP that a product or service

demonstrates compliance to all relevant requirements. This enables world-wide

interoperability with ATMs and point of sale terminals as well as durability,

reliability and security assurance.  With this formal LOA, Goldpac and local

banks can move forward with biometric card issuance.

This is the second biometric card certification, using IDEX'S fingerprint sensor

and biometric solutions, issued by CUP, which will provide even more choice for

card-based payment solutions.

"CUP is the largest payment network in the world, supporting more than half of

all cards issued on the global brand networks. This second LOA is a yet another

critical step to driving mass adoption," said Vince Graziani, CEO, IDEX

Biometrics.
