Monizze, Issuer of Electronic Meal Vouchers, Joins VASCO's MYDIGIPASS.COM Community


OAKBROOK TERRACE, Ill. and ZURICH - VASCO Data Security International, Inc. (Nasdaq: VDSI; www.vasco.com), a leading software security company specializing in authentication products, announces today that Monizze, developer of electronic payment solutions, will integrate the MYDIGIPASS.COM  platform to authenticate both its customers and their end users on its customer portal and MyMonizze.com.



Monizze develops electronic payment solutions, and addresses digitalization opportunities of coupons, tickets, or any paper vouchers. Monizze is licensed by the Belgian government as an electronic meal voucher issuer. Meal vouchers are the most common used extralegal advantage in Belgium. The prepaid vouchers can be used to purchase food in restaurants, shops and large supermarkets and are given to employees as an employee benefit. Monizze has developed a solution that replaces the traditional paper coupons with an electronic chip card.



The company addresses both the employer and the employee. Employers can upload the monetary amounts on the employee's electronic chip card using Monizze's employers' web application. Employees in turn can check the total amount on the card using the "MyMonizze" application.



To secure access to these confidential data, Monizze has implemented VASCO's authentication platform MYDIGIPASS.COM ensuring both employer and employee that unauthorized access to their confidential information is out of the question. The use of MYDIGIPASS.COM's two-factor authentication adds an extra security layer to Monizze's applications. Users must possess a DIGIPASS. The dynamic password generated by DIGIPASS can only be used once and has a limited validity.



Users of Monizze can register themselves on www.MYDIGIPASS.COM and download the free DIGIPASS for Mobile application. With DIGIPASS for Mobile users can generate a dynamic one-time password on their cell phone, tablet or mobile device to securely log on to Monizze's applications. MYDIGIPASS.COM also uses QR codes that increase user convenience. By scanning the QR code with the DIGIPASS for Mobile application, users obtain immediate access to the platform.



"We are thrilled to partner with VASCO," says Jean-Louis Van Houwe, CEO of Monizze. "We offer our customers elaborate payment solutions without compromising on security. VASCO has built a worldwide reputation as a specialist in securing banking applications. By integrating VASCO's innovative and renowned technology into our web applications, we give our users the fundamental trust to use our online services in a secure manner without being oblivious about user friendliness."



"This alliance with Monizze is another important step in the further expansion of VASCO's MYDIGIPASS.COM community," says Ken Hunt, Founder, Chairman and CEO of VASCO Data Security. "This cooperation is equally beneficial for Monizze. By integrating MYDIGIPASS.COM into its web applications, Monizze is able to boost customer trust while at the same time providing employers and employees with the flexibility to manage their online accounts."
