Mobile security firm, Gemalto joins forces with Samsung to accelerate the deployment of Samsung mobile payment service, Samsung Pay through Gemalto’s Allynis Trusted Service Hub (TSH). Both companies are actively working with payment issuers to roll out Samsung Pay to Europe. Samsung Pay is designed to enable more merchants to participate in mobile payments, supporting both the Near Frequency Communications (NFC) and MST (Magnetic Secure Transmission) technologies.
According to Gemalto, its Allynis TSH is a one-stop connection that offers payment issuers an accelerated path to launch mobile payment services, integrating streamlined user enrollment, service installation and lifecycle management of payment credentials or tokenization services. Samsung Pay on the new Galaxy handsets benefits from a dedicated embedded secure element for storing sensitive credentials, while theAllynis TSH ensures that payment issuers can benefit from the maximum flexibility for future roadmaps, said Gemalto.
