Smart E-Switch Platform
“Control is shifting from financial provider to cardholder.”

Smart E-Switch provides the best prevention, detection and resolution of card payment fraud. Smart E-Switch is the only really effective system to battle the increase in card fraud while guaranteeing an excellent quality of service to cardholders.

We provide our clients with a patented system, a turn-key hardware and software platform as well as cardholder support through our customer support center. Our system is available on a global basis and can secure any of the over 5 billion issued cards.

Our Smart E-Switch platform is implemented to work hand in hand with the card issuing bank’s authorization system. We can integrate it or provide a full service solution, including help desk operations. Our system can be integrated into the banks existing authorization system or it can be hosted separately, depending on the speed and resources available at the bank.

What is involved in implementing it? Our team provides full-service implementation and support to the card issuer, or the card issuer has the option of using our existing IT partners to implement the technology under our guidance. The User Interface by which cardholders and the bank’s customer service can set limits can be integrated into a bank’s existing online banking system or operated on our service platform. We work with each bank or card issuer to determine the most effective implementation model to meet your needs.

Our Smart E-Switch System uses a powerful and innovative strong mutual authentication with a multi-factor authentication method provided by our business partner, B32Trust. This system of mutual authentication using a strong multi-factor out-of-band authentication method can also be used by the banks to secure their online banking systems.

How It Works

The CardSwitch system provides different kinds of control parameters. The four main types: local ATM transactions, out of country ATM transactions, out of country card payments, MOTO payments. Under each type, blocking limits can be further defined by: time period and/or cumulative amount and /or single transaction amount and/or geographic location and/or merchant category. For instance, you can be very specific in what you want to do, such as “unlock John Smith’s card for Internet, $200.00”.
