Dynamic Card Solutions Signs 400th Customer

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.—(Aug. 12, 2008) — Dynamic Card Solutions (DCS), developer of CardWizard®, the leading instant issue and PIN selection software application for financial institutions, today announced that it has signeed its 400th customer – SAFE Federal Credit Union. DCS is working with SAFE Federal Credit Union to implement a program that instantly issues Visa® debit cards at the branch level. Looking to eliminate the wait time for their members to receive a card, the South Carolina-based credit union plans to roll out the instant issuance program to its 15 branches throughout the state.

“After reviewing multiple applications for instant issuance, we chose to implement DCS because of their user-friendly interface, compliant security and reputation for superior customer service and support,” said Robin Kelly, card services supervisor of SAFE Federal Credit Union. “As a credit union that is committed to member service, we see instant issuance as a way to give our members a more convenient way to receive their debit card.”

DCS continues to see considerable growth by the signing new customers and increasing customer orders both domestically and internationally.

“Our sustained growth is a significant sign that we are a driving force in the industry and instant issue of cards is highly beneficial,” said Ron Zanotti, vice president of DCS. “Instant issuance benefits both the customer and the financial institution. The member/customer can walk out of the branch with a card in his/her hand and begin using right away – making it extremely convenient. By enabling them to use it immediately, financial institutions see an increase in card penetration, activation and usage – ultimately increasing interchange revenue. It is also a great acquisition and retention tool since it makes a very positive impression with new and existing members/customers.”

Staying abreast of the market, DCS recently released a new version of CardWizard that enable new capabilities such as custom background selection, as well as the ability to instantly issue cards with both contactless chips and magnetic stripes allowing them to remain usable with a variety of existing merchants’ payment systems.

“As the market changes, financial institutions demand state-of-the-art capabilities, seamless integration, increased security and ease-of-use,” said Zanotti. “Our product evolution of CardWizard shows our continuing commitment to always offer an innovative solution for financial institutions to securely issue personalized plastic cards. And we back it with superior customer service and support.”
