Norway-based IDEX Biometrics has partnered with a Turkey-based issuer to launch biometric payment cards for the local market.

This partnership follows a previously announced partnership in Turkey with card manufacturer, E-Kart. Turkey is one of the most innovative and largest payment card market globally and demonstrates great opportunity with 240 million cards in circulation and 1.8 million acceptance locations, as per the press release.
