From the very beginning ASEC has been involved in adapting contactless smart card technologies in creating identification and security systems as well as high-quality systems facilitating business processes.

Because of our high specialization and access through partner agreements to brand new technologies as well as our constant interest in technology development we have been able to set up in Poland many modern and good-priced technology solutions.

For access control applications ASEC offers a complete line of readers based on 13,56 MHz technology: Mifare, LEGIC advant, LEGIC prime and also 125 kHz reader. A state-of-the-art design and robust housings ensure suitability for the most demanding environments. These innovative readers come with most of the common interfaces. Our RFID products are designed to work in applications that are either stand-alone or part of a network or system such as access control, time & attendance, toll road payment, public transportation ticketing, city cards, university cards, loyalty cards, sport & recreation facilities management, park and ride and prepaid metering.

ASEC became the leading provider of contactless city transport and parking systems in Poland after ASEC's system for public communications (metro, tramways, buses) and parking was installed in the city of Warsaw in 2004. ASEC has also become a premier provider in Poland of contactless prepaid card systems based on GSM communications, while delivering such a system to be installed in 2 500 press kiosks all over Poland.

Due to its market driven approach, its determination to explore new opportunities, and the continuous application of cutting edge technologies, ASEC experienced a rapid growth since it was founded. The result is an impressive track record of innovative products that enable our customers to protect their assets and increase the efficiency of their business operations.

After joining the OTI Group of companies, ASEC expanded its offer of products and solutions to include also the following OTI's products integrated into ASEC's solutions:

Contactless Payment Solutions

Such solutions are designed to allow the cardholders just tap or present the card in front of the reader, ending time-consuming searches for change and shortening lengthy waits for credit card authorization. Contactless payment solutions are ideally suited for movie theaters, convenience stores, fast food restaurants, gas stations, e.t.c. Payments can be made either either on-line or offline as an e-purse, loading funds through a refill system, or putting funds directly on the card. Alternatively - credit card information can be stored directly on the chip.
