Gemalto participates in promoting CEPAS-compliant concession cards

Gemalto announced it has started providing end-to-end personalization and distribution services for the new Contactless ePurse Application (CEPAS)-compliant concession cards from Singapore Land Transport Authority (LTA). CEPAS is an interoperable micro-payment platform, which enables card issuers to develop a new generation of CEPAS-compliant cards to be used for public transportation and other electronic payment systems. 

Gemalto is working at securely personalizing the new contactless CEPAS-compliant concession cards with the cardholder’s digital identity and photograph for the concession cards aimed at students, National Servicemen and Senior Citizens. Moreover, Gemalto’s ‘roving centers’ have been set-up at schools to distribute the cards to students on-site.. 

Tan Teck Lee, President of Gemalto Asia, said the company was proud “to contribute to the card replacement process for concession card holders.”
