April 25, 2016

HONG KONG, 25 April, 2016 - Advanced Card Systems Ltd. (ACS, a wholly owned subsidiary of Advanced Card Systems Holdings Ltd., SEHK: 2086), Asia Pacific's top supplier and one of the world's top 3 suppliers of PC-linked smart card readers (Source: Frost & Sullivan), is among the finalists in this year’s Contactless and Mobile Awards under the Retail & Loyalty category.

ACS’s entry is ePLUS, a contactless payment system developed for the largest mall operator and retail company in the Philippines. ePLUS enables a shift to cashless payment for the Philippines’s persistently cash-based environment, due to the vast number of merchants and service providers that it covers. It is among the first cashless payment systems initiated by the private sector, and has so far been unparalleled in terms of the size of its user base and geographical coverage.

“We are pleased that ACS continues to receive recognition, continuing a streak established in the past few years,” says Gilbert Leung, Senior Vice President for Sales and Marketing. “This recognition inspires us to continue providing end-to-end solutions that ease transactions for consumers, merchants, and service providers.”
