Entrust, a US digital security and credential issuance service provider, reveals that it has entered a deal to acquire Paris-headquartered Antelop Solutions, a Fintech firm that supports financial institutions by allowing them to provide secure digital credit and debit cards to clients.

As noted by its management:

“Antelop is the Digital Card Partner of banks, certified Visa, Mastercard and CB, answering their Digitization challenges. We digitize cards and secure banking apps.

This move aims to bring together Antelop’s services with Entrust’s card issuance portfolio.

Antelop Solutions has around 30 workers who will be joining Entrust with the strategic acquisition, including founder and Chief Executive Nicolas Bruley.
