Welcome to MUSCard SmartCard Services Inc.
MUSCard SmartCard Services
Inc. is a Canadian company that is dedicated to providing smart
card technologies to the North American Market. It's principals
have been developing and deploying smart card technology in
Europe since 1998.
A smart card is a card that is
embedded with a microprocessor and a memory chip. The
microprocessor card can add, delete, and otherwise manipulate
information on the card. Unlike magnetic stripe cards, they can
carry all necessary functions and information on the card
itself. They do not require access to remote databases at the
time of the transaction, and offer greatly increased security.
The University of Murcia in
Spain has been developing and deploying the most advanced smart
card technologies for several years. That technology is in
constant daily use at the University by 45,000 students and
1,000 staff members to provide financial transactions, security
and access control, and as a gateway into a host of
administrative services. The Murcia applications have been
adopted by many other universities and libraries.
MUSCard is pleased to offer
this mature technology for use in North America.
