This year, for the first time ever, the TRUSTECH Innovation Awards honoured the top innovations in three categories of the payment and identification industry: smart cards; banking, finance and the challenges facing payment institutions; and security, identification, access control and the challenges facing governments and administrations. In parallel, the Start-Up Trophy – which recognises the most impactful new tech gem – was also discerned.

The TRUSTECH Innovation Awards showcase the most fully formed developments on the market and reward its actors’ capacity for innovation. The purpose of the Awards is to shine a spotlight on the best practices amongst actors in the payment and identification sector.

A total of four awards were bestowed during the ceremony held on 3December.

"Smart Cards" Category

Ellipse, for its EVC (Ellipse Verification Code) technology, which virtually eliminates credit and debit fraud for online shopping transactions by embedding a dynamic security code (dCVV/dCVC) onto the card itself via a revolutionary battery-free, electronic paper. EVC is also the first to bring Invisible Mode to cards, giving cardholders the ability to completely hide their CVC/CVV via a mobile app.
