Prior to its acquisition by Ingenico S.A. of Paris, France, the U.S. operations did business as Checkmate and then IVI Checkmate. Today, more daily transactions in the USA originate on Ingenico terminals than any other brand. Ingenico provides retail merchants with reliable, secure electronic transaction terminals designed to speed customer check-out while reducing the merchant's overall cost of business. Ingenico has solutions for the small independent merchant right through to the large, multi-national, multi-lane merchant requiring customized software and hardware installations.

Ingenico products and services are used by banking, retail, petroleum, transportation, healthcare industries and governments to ensure the secure acceptance and flow of electronic commerce. The Company's 1200 employees as well as a network of subsidiaries, partners and distributors make it simple, fast and safe to purchase goods and services anywhere in the world.

Annually Ingenico dedicates more than 8% of its revenue to research and development of new payment systems, providing ever increasing performance and security. These payment systems, based on the UNICAPT 32 architecture and EMV smart card standards, leverage technologies such as biometry, touchscreen, GPRS communications and Bluetooth to deliver cost effective performance. Ingenico's continual technological and commercial development of applications for purchasing card systems, e-procedures, prepaid systems and electronic transaction management provides solutions for markets that demand optimal security (PCI PED) and efficiency. Ingenico is also engaged in a large number of emerging markets such as electronic identity control, health cards and logistic traceability.
