Beautiful Card Corporation (BCC), in collaboration with biometric technology leader IDEX Biometrics, has launched a next-generation biometric payment card based on the IDEX Pay platform for global banking clients. This innovative card has successfully obtained certifications from both Mastercard and Visa, granting it global issuance rights and validating its compliance with international standards of security and performance.
Mastercard previously issued a Letter of Approval authorizing BCC to deploy biometric smart cards powered by IDEX Pay for worldwide distribution. Shortly after, Visa confirmed on April 2, 2025, that BCC’s product had passed a series of stringent technical evaluations, including chip-level security, biometric authentication capabilities, and contactless payment specifications, granting the product global approval.
“This dual recognition from Mastercard and Visa is a testament to the strong partnership between BCC and IDEX Biometrics. As we accelerate our focus on biometric payment and access card applications, we are committed to working closely with our global clients and ecosystem partners to deliver smoother and more secure user experiences. We believe this advancement will further drive adoption of biometric cards around the world,” stated the management team at BCC.
As one of the world’s leading smart card manufacturers, BCC produces over 121 million cards annually and brings more than 32 years of experience in smart card development and manufacturing. The dual certifications underscore BCC’s technological strength and inject new momentum into the global biometric fintech landscape.
