Wincor partner BS/2 launches e-channel payments for bank in Kazakhstan

August 2, 2009

Lithuania-based financial software and solutions provider and Wincor Nixdorf AG partner BS/2 says it has wrapped a two-year development project for a new e-channel at Halyk Bank, a leading bank in Kazakhstan.

BS/2's Pavel Drobinov says the e-channel is fully integrated into the bank's IT infrastructure and meets all EMV standards and functionality:

The goal of the project was to install software and hardware into bank's IT infrastructure for the development of a new e-channel for service payment via info payment terminals. Four parties participated in the project: Halyk Bank, BS/2, Wincor Nixdorf and OpenWay. The project was complex and long — requirements were changed and various technology issues arose during the project. But due to coordinated work of all project parties, the desirable result has been achieved.

Software integrated into information terminals enables payment with card or cash for utilities, taxes, communication services, etc.

During the project, 600 info-payment terminals manufactured and designed by Wincor Nixdorf were delivered to Halyk Bank and integrated into the bank's IT infrastructure. Software from BS/2 facilitates the payments.
