By partnering with digital wallet providers such as Alipay, Android Pay, Samsung Pay, and Tenpay, we provide deeply integrated complete solutions, thus speeding time to market for OEMs. With online service providers, Synaptics works to customize and integrate OEM-specific authenticators into the secure environment on the device, ensuring security and privacy for the end user. This puts our biometrics at the heart of the security system. For example, with Synaptics FIDO Certified fingerprint sensors integrated into Samsung Galaxy smartphones, end users can authorize Pay Pal transaction with the swipe of a finger instead of a password or PIN. Synaptics is actively engaged with payment network operators such as VISA, Master Card and Union Pay to streamline the certification process for device manufacturers. Our pre-qualified products, deployment tools, and expertise helps them to clear the certification hurdles quickly and efficiently. All of this work is done in the context of standards, in order to ensure broad compatibility and interoperability. Our participation in the Global Platform Association supports the deployment of secure, embedded-chip applications. Additionally, as a founding board member of the FIDO Alliance, Synaptics is helping to change the nature of online authentication by reducing the reliance on passwords and PINs. The result is a consistent and seamless mobile payments experience – worldwide.
