ASTREX for Issuers

ASTREX can help card issuers to ensure their production systems can support new innovations and product offers before they enter the marketplace.

Unlike legacy technologies, EMV requires a fully operational payment network from card to issuer and back again before any single component can be tested.

Card Verification

  • Our EMV level two kernel allows an issuer to test pre-production cards against our own issuer simulator. Full support is included for both POS and ATM transactions, allowing a complete range of CRM conditions to be tested.

Issuer System Verification

  • ASTREX's virtual transaction generator, enables you to create all terminal scenarios supported by your issuing host without cards, terminals, acquiring host or network.
  • ASTREX's industry-unique security audit provides complete, first-principles analysis of all cryptographic operations, providing you with the ability to diagnose all cryptographic failures.

Total System Verification

  • ASTREX's unique acquiring and switching capabilities permit you to acquire transactions from your cards and deliver them to your issuing host, without requiring either terminals or an acquiring infrastructure.
