Ingenico to provide chip and PIN kiosk tech to Ryanair airlines

July 14, 2009

DUBLIN, Ireland — Ingenico, a global provider of payment solutions, has announced a three-year partnership with Ryanair, Europe's largest low-fares airline, to develop the world's first self-service passenger kiosks with chip and PIN technology to allow passengers to purchase optional services, such as priority boarding, when they arrive at the airport. 
 
According to a news release, Ingenico and Ryanair will initially install the chip and PIN payment system in all its London-based kiosks and will continue to roll out the development across its Barcelona, Belfast, Frankfurt and Marseille bases.
 
As part of a three-year contract with Ryanair, Ingenico has provided a complete transaction-management system for the initial rollout of 250 unmanned kiosks, with plans to grow to 450 kiosks. It comprises the AXIS electronic payment system, centralized hosting of the transaction-management system and PIN pads. The solution enables the kiosks to be fully compatible with PCI-DSS guidelines, as well as those set by Visa and MasterCard for secure payments.
 
"Ingenico's unique partnership with Ryanair demonstrates Ingenico's commitment to being at the forefront of innovation and the technological advances in the sector," said Philippe Lazare, CEO of Ingenico. "We continue to expand our international footprint and are dedicated to ensuring that customers and retailers have access to the highest levels of convenience, security and simplicity in their transactions."
