Customer Retention and Incentive Solutions Today Signed a Strategic
Partnership LAS VEGAS, May 24 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Bell ID's
ANDiS CAMS will become the preferred card, application and key
management system for Phoenix Technology and SCTN's (OTC:SCTN)
Loyalty Central will become Bell ID's preferred Incentive solution.
This partnership will increase the commercial reach of both
companies and will be able to provide customers a true end-to-end
solution for managing customer loyalty alongside other applications
such as EMV, e-purse etc. ANDiS and Loyalty Central are two
products that fit together perfectly -- Bell ID's customers often
search for additional applications for their multi-application card
management projects, and Phoenix customers need a CAMS system to
issue and manage their loyalty cards. The Bell ID -- Phoenix
partnership is a response to the Finance market, which is searching
for commercially viable loyalty programs as the next step for their
EMV migration. Phoenix offers solutions that are technically
advanced in comparison to their competitors, and easy to integrate
with the ANDiS system. Steve Sorge from Phoenix Technology said,
"Loyalty programs have been used by retailers for years, and smart
card reward systems have become the most convenient way to manage
consumer's loyalty. Though this partnership clients will be able to
combine our Customer Retention Solutions with the powerful ANDiS
Card Management System to create an innovative and flexible smart
card solution." About Phoenix Technology Phoenix Technology
