ATLANTA and HAMILTON, Bermuda, March 9, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Bluefin, the leading provider of data and payment security technologies including PCI-validated point-to-point encryption (P2PE) solutions, Powertranz, the local leader in Card Present gateway/payment processing for the Caribbean, and NRT Technology Corp, a global technology leader, have announced the first secure, self-integrated contactless kiosks with validated P2PE for the Caribbean market.

The companies have introduced the first self-integrated contactless kiosk solution for the Caribbean that includes Bluefin as the validated P2PE provider, PowerTranz as the Card Present gateway/payment processor, and NRT kiosks that utilize Advanced Mobile Payments' 6500 unattended devices.

“We are very excited to bring the much-needed installation of self-serve kiosks backed by PCI-validated P2PE to this market," said Eldred F. Garcia, VP of Security Solutions, Bluefin.

Bluefin, Powertranz and NRT teamed with acquirer Scotiabank to develop a solution for Cable & Wireless, the leading telecommunications and entertainment providers in the Caribbean and Latin America, which included developing the payment application, integrating the device in the kiosk software and certifying the device with Fiserv for Mastercard, VISA, Discover and AMEX. Cable & Wireless operates over 100 NRT-Opal bill payment kiosks in 14 countries in the Caribbean.

"The migration (Liability Shift) of EMV (Chip Cards) to the Latin America & Caribbean Region went into effect in 2013. Self-service kiosks have been in increasing demand for operational efficiencies, customer service satisfaction, and more recently social distancing demand because of the global pandemic COVID-19," said Chris Burns, CEO of Powertranz. "Cable and Wireless specifically needed a chip and pin solution to accept all card payments at the kiosks."

The first installment of 51 kiosks in 7 Caribbean countries has been completed. The companies will continue to deploy additional self-service kiosks for a total of over 100 across 5 additional countries in the Caribbean. In Phase II of the project, local debit payment cards and contactless payments will be enabled.

"This ground-breaking initiative enabled NRT to provide our customers with an integrated, seamless EMV or "Chip and Pin" card processing solution for self-service bill payment and account top-up kiosks accepting both branded and local debit and credit cards in unattended locations in the Caribbean" said Brian Simon, NRT's Director of Sales for Opal Products.

"The complexity of a multi-country adoption of a uniform payment solution which supports a transnational utility service provider, an international financial institution, a local-centric payment gateway & processor, and a global Payment Council Industry certified data security provider offers a best of breed partnership to bring integrated self-service kiosks supporting MSR, EMV, NFC and PCI-validated P2PE to the Caribbean market," said Eldred F. Garcia, VP of Security Solutions, Bluefin. "We are very excited to bring the much-needed installation of self-serve kiosks backed by validated P2PE to this market."
