Case studies
KNVB, Royal Dutch Football Association
KNVB chose Bell ID® Identity Token Manager for a league-wide rollout of a multi-application smart ID card, supporting both centrally controlled as well as club-specific, local applications. Instead of issuing separate cards for their own electronic payment systems and loyalty programs, the clubs can now activate these on the compulsory Club Cards. Longevity of season ticket tokens expands to 5 years, as section and seat numbers can now be managed digitally, instead of re-issuing tokens every season.
The solution is linked into the nationwide ticketing system and prevents duplicate issuance of cards to blacklisted individuals. Club Cards used to be personalized centrally batches, but clubs can now make use of local card production equipment for instantly issuing smaller numbers of ID cards.
