FIS® (NYSE:FIS), a global leader in financial technology, has been recognized as an Overall Leader in the latest Digital Issuance Provider Scorecard from Javelin Strategy & Research (Javelin). Following recent recognitions from several respected analyst houses, this announcement further illustrates FIS' position as a leading provider of payment solutions that unlock efficiencies for the world's money when in motion.
Digital issuance is a process that lets banks and other financial institutions give people access to their card details right away, without needing to wait for a physical card to arrive in the mail. With this technology, consumers can start using their digital card for purchases almost immediately, whether online or in stores, helping to make payments faster and more convenient.
The Scorecard, which provides comprehensive assessments of digital issuance solutions, meticulously evaluated eight digital card issuance products across three categories using 25 criteria, backed by findings from consumer survey research. FIS was also named a Leader in the scorecard's "Features & Functionality" category and "Technology" category, demonstrating the company's commitment to innovating across the entire money lifecycle.
"As Gen Z and Gen Alpha take on greater importance for card issuers, it's imperative that we provide them with an outstanding digital user experience," said Kim Bynan, head of Issuing Solutions at FIS. "A modern card issuing platform needs to stay ahead of the curve with innovative technology that helps exceed those customers' demands, and this recognition from Javelin reinforces FIS' leadership in helping issuers get there."

Financial institutions need to prioritize digital issuance and choose a solution provider that offers product features and functionalities that will meet customers' growing demand for greater security, quicker digital card access and an enhanced customer experience," said Elisa Tavilla, director of the Debit Payments practice at Javelin and author of the Scorecard.
