In the past three years, ACS has consistently exceeded its own sales targets resulting in steady profit growth. ACS’s sales revenue in 2013 was historically the highest ever achieved. An annual customer satisfaction survey among ACS clients shows that as of 2014, clients regard their relationship with the company as very good (on a five-point scale ranging from very poor, poor, neutral, good to very good) -which ACS attributes to the trust established between itself and partners, and the simplicity and transparency characterizing ACS business contracts. “The Best Under a Billion List is not a compilation of top performers in the technology industry. Rather, it is a list that covers all industries, such as manufacturing, construction, software and so forth,” says Denny Wong, founder and CEO of ACS. “We are proud to be part of the list that is screened based not only on profits, but overall excellence, including evidence of integrity.

ACS Shortlisted in Payments Awards 2014
HONG KONG, 13 Nov, 2014 - Advanced Card Systems Ltd. (ACS, a wholly owned subsidiary of Advanced Card Systems Holdings Ltd., SEHK: 8210), Asia Pacific's top supplier and one of the world's top 3 suppliers of PC-linked smart card readers (Source: Frost & Sullivan), qualified as finalist in two categories of Payments Awards 2014―Best Contactless Payments Project and Engagement and Loyalty Scheme of the Year. For both categories, ACS entered e-PLUS TaptoPay, its end-to-end loyalty and payment solution for SM Prime Holdings, the largest mall developer, operator and retail company in the Philippines. e-PLUS TaptoPay enables cashless payments through a stored value contactless card. The solution covers SM malls nationwide, SM entertainment and parking facilities, transport shuttles, major fast food outlets and convenience stores, schools, bookstores, cafeterias, and printers. Given its reach, e-PLUS TaptoPay is unparalleled in demonstrating to Filipinos the benefits of smart card technology, while making operations more efficient and secure for SM and its partner providers. “We are pleased that our solutions are being recognized in the international arena,” says Gilbert Leung, ACS’s Senior Vice President for Sales and Marketing. “The scalability of e-PLUS helps make contactless payment acceptance more accessible to merchants of all sizes. Instead of deploying their own systems, merchants may just partner with SM, saving set-up costs and gaining instant access to a large base of customers. Meanwhile, consumers get the most out of this loyalty program, since they can now reap rewards from a vast selection of merchants and service providers through just one card. We are confident that the e-PLUS is doing its significant share in exposing the Philippine market to better possibilities.” Winners will be announced on 20 Nov 2014 in an awards gala dinner and ceremony at the Grosvenor House Hotel, Park Lane, London, UK.

ACS Launches ACR32 and ACR35 Mobile Card Readers
HONG KONG, 20 Nov, 2014 - Advanced Card Systems Ltd. (ACS, a wholly owned subsidiary of Advanced Card Systems Holdings Ltd., SEHK: 8210), Asia Pacific's top supplier and one of the world's top 3 suppliers of PC-linked smart card readers (Source: Frost & Sullivan), today launched two new mobile card readers with audio-jack interface: the ACR32 MobileMate, a magnetic stripe and contact smart card reader, and the ACR35 NFC MobileMate, a magnetic stripe card and NFC tag reader. Both mobile card readers support hi-coercivity and low-coercivity magnetic stripe cards conforming to ISO 7810/ISO 7811 specifications. They interact with mobile devices via the standard 3.5 mm audio jack interface. Each device comes with one bi-color LED and one rechargeable Lithium-ion battery. To secure transactions, both devices are capable of utilizing DUKPT key management system and AES-128 encryption algorithm. Both devices may be integrated into mobile environments running on iOS (versions 5.0 and above) and Android (versions 2.0 and above). ACS MobileMate App, a demo application for these mobile card readers, is already available on the App Store, and will soon be available on Google Play. The ACR32 may be plugged into a mobile device, or―because of its USB 2.0 full speed interface―linked to a PC to perform transactions. It works in Windows, Linux and Mac environments. Aside from magnetic stripe cards, it also supports ISO 7816 Class A, B and C smart cards, MCU cards with T=0 or T=1 protocol, and most memory cards. Meanwhile, the ACR35 supports mobile devices exclusively. Aside from magnetic stripe cards, it can access ISO 14443 Type A and B cards, MIFARE cards, FeliCa cards, and ISO/IEC 18092 NFC tags. The ACR35 is charged via USB cable. “With all the recent banking and payment developments geared towards consumers, we at ACS think that it only makes sense to develop corresponding solutions for merchants and other institutions,” says Gilbert Leung, ACS’s Senior Vice President for Sales and Marketing. “If consumers are starting to forego cash, why shouldn’t merchants and institutions be able to forego bulky terminals? Regardless of whether they want to accept magnetic stripe, contact, or contactless payments, ACS will have a device that makes them fully mobile.” The ACR32 and ACR35 are suitable for mobile banking, mobile payment, e-healthcare, and loyalty applications. ACS also offers other mobile card readers to meet a wider range of requirements. For more information, visit www.acs.com.hk or email [email protected]. About ACS Advanced Card Systems Ltd.
