Smart card access control company Rapidtron Inc. has entered into a partnership with Smart Card Integrators Inc. (SCI), a smart card technology company. The two companies say they will integrate their contact and contactless technologies, software and smart card products.
Rapidtron will offer SCI’s s-Choice™ operating system and electronic purse as an option within its current smart card and software package. That package will be directed toward fitness clubs, universities and colleges, winter resorts, amusement and transportation companies. Likewise, SCI will be able with Rapidtron to offer an integrated smart access system to its government and commercial customers.
“This integrated solution will allow for cashless workouts, cashless resort visits and cashless university purchases in a secured and convenient system through the use of smart card technology,” said John Creel, president of Rapidtron, in a release. “Based on the ongoing success with existing and future Rapidtron installations, we can expect this new combined offering to increase our ability to continue a major product rollout to more customers over the next two years.”
