ENTRUST DATACARD CASE STUDY
THAILAND WELFARE CARDINTRODUCTION: The Thailand Government introduced a Welfare
program with the aim to supplement low-income citizens to pay for
basic commodities in support of their daily lives. The initiative required
the Thailand Government to issue new welfare cards via its partnering
bank to qualified citizens.
CHALLENGE: In less than six weeks, the Thailand Government and
its partnering bank, had to issue over 12 million welfare cards nationwide
in time for the public launch of the new welfare program on
October 1, 2017.
SOLUTION: Data Products Toppan Forms Ltd. (DPTF), in partnership
with Thai British Security Printing Public Company Limited (TBSP),
leveraged the industry-leading Datacard® MX8100™ card issuance
system — in addition to their own software and services — to create
and issue the new cards.
RESULTS: The consortium of DPTF and TBSP were able to meet the
stringent program schedule, deliverables and service level agreement
while adhering to program quality, security and durability requirements
in rolling out over 12 million welfare cards.

Welfare Card Program OverviewThe Thailand Welfare Card is a chip-enabled EMV smartcard with monthly subsidies from the government to purchase basic daily commodities at government-approved shops and stores. For some card holders living outside of the city and in certain provinces, it includes bus and train transportation allowances. The smartcards can also allocate funds for those receiving old-age and disability allowances.
Citizen BenefitsWith the new welfare card, eligible low-income citizens in Thailand no longer need to visit the government-partnering banks in person each month to receive their welfare payments. This improves the overall processing time and greatly reduces the amount of effort, time and transportation costs to visit the banks in person.
ImplementationEntrust Datacard supported the consortium of DPTF and TBSP by manufacturing and delivering 10 units of the MX8100 system to Thailand in time for the program introduction. It also provided implementation and second line maintenance service support. In alliance with DPTF and TBSP, the partnership completed the personalization of over 12 million welfare cards before the government program start date of October 1, 2017
Overall Program BenefitsThe Thailand Welfare Cards Program introduced the government initiative nationally to qualified citizens under the program in record time, improving public services to low-income citizens and demonstrating government process efficiencies. The smartcards with financial EMV capabilities serve as multipurpose cards that are able to provide instant benefit access via government-approved merchant stores and public transportation touch points.
