DUBLIN, Ireland — Ingenico has announced a three-year partnership with Ryanair, Europe's largest low-fares airliner, to develop the world's first self-service passenger kiosks with chip and PIN technology to allow passengers to buy optional services, such as priority boarding, when they arrive at the airport. 
 
"Ryanair has already begun the move to 100 percent online check-in, which will remove all check-in desks from our 146 airports by October," said Stephen McNamara, Ryanair's head of communications. "We are upgrading and installing self-service kiosks to ensure passengers can still purchase the services they require when they arrive at the airport."
 
According to a news release, Ingenico and Ryanair expect to install the chip and PIN payment system into all of their London-based kiosks, followed by rollouts in Barcelona, Belfast, Frankfurt and Marseille. As part of a three-year contract with Ryanair, Ingenico has provided a complete transaction management system for the inital rollout of 250 kiosks, with plans to grow to 450 kiosks.
 
The platform comprises the AXIS electronic payment system, centralized hosting of the transaction management system and PIN pads. The solution enables the kiosks to be fully compatible with PCI-DSS guidelines, as well as those set by Visa and MasterCard for secure payments. This ensures that passengers can pay for any optional services while checking in.
 
"Ingenico's unique partnership with Ryanair demonstrates Ingenico's commitment to being at the forefront of innovation and the technological advances in the sector," said Philippe Lazare, chief executive of Ingenico. "We continue to expand our international footprint, and are dedicated to ensuring that customers and retailers have access to the highest levels of convenience, security and simplicity in their transactions."
