To implement the idea, IDEX teamed up with leading Turkish card manufacturer E-Kart. Turkey attracted the biometrics company as one of the biggest payment card markets in the world. Namely, the release states the country has 240 million cards in circulation and 1.8 million acceptance locations.

Moreover, a recently published market survey commissioned by IDEX Customer Lab revealed a strong public demand for the technology. Thus, 86% of consumers in Turkey considered biometric payment cards very convenient, and 82% said they would use a biometric payment card if it were available to them.

IDEX Biometrics designs and commercializes fingerprint sensor solutions for payments cards, embedded devices, digital wallets and cyber authentication.
