Trintech has been selected by British retailer Debenehams as its software supplier for its smartcard technology.
A pilot scheme is under way in six Debenhams stores and a full rollout to 104 stores across Britain and Ireland is due to be completed by the end of October.
Trintech's Smart 5000 incorporates a single slot 'hybrid' card reader that reads both magnetic stripe and new chip card types.
Debenhams were keen to opt for a hybrid reader to avoid confusion and disruption for customers and staff at the point of sale.
