NEW EMV CHIP-CARD TRANSACTION SOLUTION PLUGS INTO EXISTING CARD-PAYMENT AUTHORIZATION SYSTEMS USED BY ISSUERS, ACQUIRERS AND PROCESSORS

  CHICAGO - 04/29/2016 (PRESS RELEASE JET)

Opus Consulting today announced the release of a new solution – the Opus EMV Transactions Accelerator – that card issuers, acquirers and processors can use to process EMV chip-card transactions with their existing core- authorization engine application.  The EMV Transactions Accelerator can be used with all debit, credit and pre-paid card authorization systems, and it supports all leading Hardware Security Module (HSM) brands. Implementation and integration is quick and easy, and the solution has minimal impact on authorization-system performance.

"Retailers have purchased new POS card-payment systems that can accept both EMV card-insert and card-swipe payments, only to find that their merchant provider isn't able to process the EMV data efficiently," said Anand Ramakrishnan, CEO of Opus Consulting. "Our EMV Transaction Accelerator solution, which consists of two plug-in modules inserted before and after the existing core-authorization engine, identifies and processes the EMV data so that the authorization engine can approve or reject the payment request. It's a quick, cost-effective way of leveraging their existing system to speed processing of the new EMV chip-card transactions."
