IST launches glitter ink innovation for premium payment card design. Helping banks and issuers boost engagement, branding, and customer appeal with a stand-out design. Posted on 05.28.26 IDEMIA Secure Transactions (IST) brings brilliance to everyday payments with a new glitter ink printing technology. The feature incorporates reflective particles printed onto a translucent card body, creating a subtle light-catching visual effect while maintaining the card's standard functionality and durability. Glitter ink provides issuers with an additional way to differentiate card programs through material and finish choices, at a time when payment card design plays an increasingly visible role in customer engagement. Strong appeal for Gen Z and style-conscious consumers. The glitter ink card is particularly appealing to style-conscious consumers such as teens taking their first financial steps and trend-driven Gen Z users, where demand for expressive financial products is especially strong. It also opens the door to creative, limited-edition collectibles that cardholders will want to keep and show off. As digital payments grow, physical payment cards remain one of the few tangible connections between issuers and their customers. More than ever, advanced card design has become a powerful differentiator: an opportunity for issuers to stand out, express their brand, and create an emotional connection with customers at a time of endless choices. According to IST's latest consumer survey, 72% of global respondents indicated that card design is important to them, and one-third stated that it influences how they perceive their bank. This figure rises to 45% among 18 to 37-year-olds.[1] Continuous card innovation and end-to-end service. Glitter ink expands IST's existing portfolio of advanced card design options, which includes neon inks and liquid crystal ink technologies. These solutions allow issuers to tailor card aesthetics to different audiences without changing the underlying payment experience. IST provides end-to-end support covering card design, manufacturing, and personalization across more than 30 service centers worldwide. This enables issuers to deploy visually distinct cards while maintaining consistent production and adapting designs to local market requirements. IDEMIA Group is extremely excited to launch glitter ink for payment cards. IDEMIA Group continuously innovate to help its customers stay ahead of the curve with standout card designs that resonate with their audience, especially Gen Z, who value self-expression and individuality - glitter ink does exactly that. I look forward to seeing the designs that will come to market with this new addition.

IDEMIA and BNL BNP Paribas launch a light-up payment card for tennis fans. BNL BNP Paribas celebrates 20 years of the Internazionali BNL d'Italia partnership. Posted on 05.18.26 IDEMIA Secure Transactions (IST) and BNL BNP Paribas have partnered to launch a light-up payment card to celebrate the BNL BNP Paribas 20th anniversary of the Internazionali BNL d'Italia, a top-tier professional tennis tournament held annually in Rome, Italy. The prepaid limited-edition card is based on IST's Starlight LED payment card model, featuring an embedded LED panel that lights up when tapped on an NFC-enabled device, illuminating a pattern on the card with no battery required. The design of the BNL BNP Paribas light-up card celebrates the 20th anniversary of the group's partnership with the Italian Tennis and Padel Federation. Inspired by the outdoor clay courts of Rome's iconic Foro Italico, it captures the moment a tennis ball strikes the surface in an effect brought to life when the ball motif lights up as the card is tapped on a payment terminal. Applications for the card opened in April for new account holders and will be available for application from existing customers in June. To build anticipation ahead of the tournament in May, a major promotional media campaign was rolled out across leading connected TV channels, and all official BNL BNP Paribas communication channels in Italy. This included a video campaign with the slogan, "Be Noticed In and Out of Tennis Courts", highlighting the bank and the BNP Paribas Group's long-standing presence in the international tennis circuit. The card was also showcased at the BNL BNP Paribas stand at the Foro Italico in Rome, leading up to the event. The decade-long partnership between IST and BNL BNP Paribas has entered a new phase with this launch, reflecting a shared ambition to explore new formats and programs aligned with evolving market expectations in a context defined by increasing choice; where distinctive, innovative design is a key differentiator. IDEMIA Group would like to thank BNL BNP Paribas for their trust and passion around this highly visible project where innovation meets design and celebration. The light-up card is the perfect format to create a collector's item for an event that resonates strongly with BNL BNP Paribas' customers and the wider tennis community.
