Partnership With Farpointe Data Brings Apple And Google Wallet Credentials To CONEKT Mobile-Ready Readers
Connected Technologies is partnering with Farpointe Data to expand Apple and Google Wallet credential support to include CONEKT® mobile-ready readers, delivering a solution that is more cost-effective than most other NFC wallet providers.
Mobile access control is becoming ubiquitous with secure physical identity management. The Connect ONE® wallet card solution utilizes the phone’s native wallet app to help dealers migrate users to mobile credentials.
“Going beyond just a competitive cost, Connected Technologies’ integration with Farpointe’s CloudCONEKT benefits security integrators by deploying NFC access badges – Apple and Google, to end-users with a simple, quick, and repeatable solution that requires minimal planning,”
said Francisco Alcala, North American Sales Manager, Farpointe Data.
Dealer-Branded Mobile Credentials
Connect ONE’s unified, intelligent cloud platform eliminates app downloads and physical badges.
Wallet cards can be dealer branded, so every access user sees the dealer’s company name/logo every time they use their credential.
“Mobile credentials offer dealers a highly desirable way to attract and maintain customers while supporting new RMR opportunities,”
said Dan Simon, Technical Director, Connected Technologies.
“The partnership will enhance and expand the possibilities for dealers to deploy mobile credentials across a growing range of readers and manufacturers.”
Flexible Access Control Integration
Connect ONE’s NFC Wallet Cards work with any access control system, preserving the existing customer infrastructure.
With Connect ONE, dealers are not locked into a single reader manufacturer, giving them the flexibility to choose the reader that’s the best fit for the application.
Connect ONE integrates with existing infrastructure to enhance capabilities without costly replacements, unifying access, video, intrusion, fire, and environmental systems into a single platform that improves visibility and streamlines operations.
Celebrating nearly two decades of service to the security dealer community and customers, Connected Technologies LLC provides unified intelligence to multi-site commercial facilities through its flagship Connect ONE® Building Security Management Cloud Platform.
