Issuance-as-a-service: G+D launches industry-first modular platform for modern payment card issuance solutions

Giesecke+Devrient (G+D), a global SecurityTech company, offers a comprehensive range of tailored solutions in its Convego^® portfolio, designed to meet the needs of customers at every stage of the typical payment card issuance lifecycle. These include Convego^® Card Credentials for digital-first card issuing, Convego^® eActivate for frictionless and safe card activation, and other solutions. In 2023, G+D was recognized as one of the "Established Leaders" in Modern Issuance by Juniper Research.

All of these solutions are now also available "as-a-Service" on the new modular platform Convego^® Service Market, simplifying access to the various products and solutions and making their use more efficient. Among other features, the platform offers a quick overview of all available PayTech services from G+D and how they interact. New services, products, and innovative solutions are available quickly and easily via the platform. Issuers can also use it to access test environments and request support or demos. 

Developers have access to a development environment including APIs and a sandbox environment for test, provided by Convego^® Service Market. For issuers who prefer a less integrated approach or lack the necessary development resources, G+D also offers the option of using out-of-the-box portal applications to get started.

“Convego^® Service Market is the latest addition to the offerings available to banks and financial service providers,” explains Eric Megret-Dorne, Head of Payment Card Issuance Portfolio, at G+D. “With its comprehensive monitoring, analytics, management tools and API-powered digital solutions, the platform streamlines the implementation of modern issuance solutions. It empowers banks and financial service providers to deliver innovative offers tailored to their customer's needs.”

G+D will be presenting the platform at Money 20/20 Europe. Please find more information about G+D Convego^® Service Market here.
