CardsOnline
Data Agent

Connect your systems and automate your data

Connect your systems, automate data exchange and use one multifunctional smart card across new and existing facility applications.

One connection between your systems

Your organisation already relies on multiple systems to manage people, identities and facilities. A Data Agent brings these systems together through CardsOnline, allowing information from source and facility systems to be combined and used for one multifunctional credential.

Automatic Synchronization

Keep data up to date across all systems. Changes in the source are reflected automatically.

Connect what you already use

Easily connect with HR, student, access, payment, locker and other facility systems.

Reliable & Secure

Secure data transfer with validation and error handling you can rely on.

Flexible by Design

Configure the data flow around your organization’s processes and data structure.

Connect to the systems that matter

Every organization is different. Data Agents are configured to fit your systems, data model and workflows, ensuring information is exchanged in the right format and supports the processes you already use.
