“News of the partnership comes soon after SmartMetric’s announcement of a “breakthrough” in its technology pertaining to the heat resistance of its biometric card’s rechargeable battery.”
SmartMetric has a new distribution partner for its biometric card solution: GPC, for ‘General Plastic Corp’, an Argentina-based plastic card manufacturer.
Announcing the sales and distribution agreement in a statement, SmartMetric CEO Chaya Hendrick said it gives her firm a “direct entrée into the largest Banks issuing credit cards in this part of the world.”
GPC President Eduardo Voloschin, meanwhile, praised SmartMetric’s fingerprint scanning smart card solution, saying the product “is the future.” Elaborating on the benefits of the partnership for GPC, Voloshin said, “it will bring us more opportunities over the regional market where we are already a strong company servicing the largest credit card issuing Banks.”
News of the partnership comes soon after SmartMetric’s announcement of a “breakthrough” in its technology pertaining to the heat resistance of its biometric card’s rechargeable battery. The development offered positive implications for the card’s manufacturing process, and may be directly related to GPC’s decision to partner with the company, though it was not mentioned in the announcement of their agreement.
