The card data is automatically passed to OMA Emirates’ NanoPerso solution for the cards to be personalised.

The CardInk and NanoPerso turnkey solution provides a personalisation hardware security module (HSM) and card platform independent EMV issuing system, which is used by customers across multiple continents.

In addition to being hardware vendor neutral, the solution offers the highest possible combination of security and flexibility, allowing the card issuing division at Himalayan Bank to rapidly respond and adapt to changes in market and customer demands without having to engage third parties for the delivery of professional services.
