TransLink.iQ and Ingenico terminals for Azer Turk Bank
The Azerbaijani state-owned bank Azer Turk Bank has purchased a TransLink.iQ solution for EFTPOS networks monitoring and managing, developed by ASHBURN International. The project was implemented in cooperation with BSKOM, a subsidiary of BS/2, which offers specialized solutions to financial and trade organizations. As a result of this project, the bank obtained the country's first payment terminals manufactured by Ingenico.
TransLink.iQ ensures secure transaction routing. It is a convenient tool for remote EFTPOS terminal management. The software solution allows accepting payment by credit cards of both local and international payment systems. Automation of downloading and exchanging security keys, which the TransLink.iQ system uses, can simplify the process of installing terminals at bank customers. The multi-vendor system TransLink.iQ provides the ability to connect EFTPOS terminals of different manufacturers, which is especially important for Azer Turk Bank.
“Over the past five years, the volume of non-cash transactions with payment cards in Azerbaijan has increased by 5 times, and the number of cards reached 7.5 million.
