Speaking on this latest development, Zwipe CEO Andre Løvestam said “We are proud that Allcard has selected Zwipe as their partner for biometric payment card technology. Working together we will seek to secure the first trials in the Philippines with leading banks in Q1 of 2019, and with the sheer scale of the opportunity, we are optimistic that commercial orders will come in H2 2019.”
