After multiple mobile contactless trials in Asia and in the rest of the world and through its experience in the telecommunications, transport and financial sectors, Gemalto successfully developed a secure solution fulfilling the specific needs of its partners and end-users. It will allow Taiwan Mobile to register, issue, manage and terminate mobile NFC services over-the-air (OTA). Taiwan Mobile’s subscribers will be free to securely purchase goods, top-up their transport pass and proceed to coupons management by using their mobile phone in a contactless mode. This comprehensive solution will be commercially rolled out nation-wide during 2008. It will enable banks, transport companies and other service providers to incorporate their services onto a mobile environment. Gemalto’s solution encompasses all aspects of the service including a card and application management system, a key management system (to securely handle the life-cycle of the application), a module to deploy the user interface application both on the NFC SIM and the handset. Gemalto also takes care of maintenance and support. remi.calvet@gemalto.com www.gemalto.com
