TransLink^.iQ is a modern instrument for managing the network of payment terminals, which allows remotely monitoring the equipment operation as well as updating the parameters and software. The solution meets the highest safety standards and therefore, helps to ensure the safety of card owners’ data,” said Mr. Mertinas.

The data of financial transactions carried out by Dayhan Bank card readers will be processed in the Hall Bank data processing centre, which is using the Smart Vista solution by BPC Banking Technologies. Therefore, TransLink^.iQ was certified according to its requirements.
