Level Four aims for smooth migration at Canadian ATMs
October 3, 2007
CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Level Four, a supplier of open standards-based ATM software, has announced the signing of three leading Canadian banks to BRIDGE:test. Level Four's automated testing solution for Windows-based ATM applications has been largely prompted by the EMV chip card standard mandated in Canada for December 2012. Another driver for upgrades to Canadian ATM networks has been the worldwide migration to the Windows operating system and the XFS open standard.
Level Four's solution automates the testing process by providing end-to-end transaction testing directly from the chip card, through the live ATM software application and up to the host system. Automation shortens the time taken and eases the burden of the Canadian banks' efforts in order to comply with the mandate. Furthermore, the advanced reporting capabilities of BRIDGE:test provides greater visibility of, and insight into, banks' ATM network diagnostics for them to better understand and manage the complexities that EMV introduces.
"BRIDGE:test is much more than just a test tool; it will empower our Canadian banking customers to take control of their ATM networks during a period of significant change," said Steven Lund, president of Level Four Americas. "With comprehensive, end-to-end testing of their ATM network enabling a seamless transition to new technology within the set timeframe, the banks can focus on rectifying any problems in the network that may negatively impact the customer experience. From our past experience with banks EMV compliance projects throughout Europe and the Middle East, we're in a great position to help the Canadian banks that have signed with us this year. We anticipate additional banks will follow suit as EMV compliance gains momentum in Canada."
