What is Mantle?
Mantle is a next-generation secure electronic wallet smart card. Though this card looks and feels much like the credit card you have already, it is so much more. The card allows you to use it no matter the reader technology. From swipe, to chip, to secure proximity, this card will work with them all. With additional built in features this system enhanced existing security allowing you the peace of mind that your money is safe.

Already have a card?
Using Mantle's technology you can add in your existing credit, debit, loyalty program, transit passes, and all other cards, electronic currencies, and anything else that's cluttering up your wallet or purse. At the push of a button you can transform Mantle from your credit card to your transit card and then into a loyalty card; seamlessly. In short, instead of carrying 25 different cards, you carry one Mantle.

Mantle's companion web and mobile apps will also suggest cards which may be useful for the transaction for optimal rewards points, privacy, business, or other reasons.

Built in security features:
Among other industry standards such as imprinted cards, and holographic images, our card features some of the latest security features:

Encrypted proximity transactions, you can limit the amount of money available to this card feature if you desire.
All transactions are one time use; so even if a criminal manages to read your card, they only have one transaction.

EMV/Integrated circuit card high security credit/debit payment card.
This is the current industry standard 'chip and pin' system.

Dynamic CVV and Dynamic Magnetic Stripe
Gone are the days of cloning your magnetic strip or writing down your card details.
Much like the EMV chip, Dynamic stripes only prove its validity and don't disclose your information or card code.
Dynamic CVVs update every 60 seconds and use an e-ink system to show the CVV image on the card when you touch the CVV panel.

Transaction 'freeze' option by card holder.
Worried about scammers trying to read your card? 'Freeze' it, halting all transactions until you unlock the card.
Forgot your card in the store? When it detects it's moved too far from your phone or your security fob, it auto locks.
Forgot your phone or fob at home but need to use your card? Enter the pin and it unlocks.

DNA lock card authentication
A specialized DNA strand is generated for each card. Only OFR or its associates have the codes to remotely verify the card is indeed yours.
If somehow thieves try to use a cloned version of your card, they won't know your card's DNA code and can't duplicate it, only we retain this information.
If we 'challenge' the transaction, it reads the DNA code in the card to verify the card. When their card reads unverified we'll deny their transaction.​


Card Features:
Dynamic true color 'E Ink' display allows image customization on the face of the card even recreating the full image of the card you've selected.

Gone are the days of stacks of credit, debit, loyalty cards, transit passes, gift cards, and others just cluttering your life.

To the Kaiserreich Kannex,
We appreciate your interest in our services and welcome you to the Mantle Payment Card and Omni Card Network. If you have any concerns or needs, our staff is eager to assist.

We will gladly assist in the integration of our card services in all your needs including transit passes and fraud protection. At the time of your choosing, our agents will assist your government in whatever way we can with planning and implementation of public assistance cards.

It is and has been the standing operating procedure of the Mantle payment card and Omni card network to establish a card processing center in each nation that utilizes our services to more effectively assist our customers. This allows the local processing center to better understand the needs of customers while meeting all local governmental requirements. Therefor per standard procedure, all cards from the Kannex Mantle card center would be issued in and from Kannex.

The vast majority of Mantle cards are offered through local and network banks, local and international corporations, as well as local and international institutions, and by government agencies serviced by the Mantle system. Although cards are offered by Occidental Federal Reserve to its customers, the majority of cards are primarily issued on behalf of other groups under the Mantle system and processed by the Omni Card Network. As such cards will be issued through corporations and organizations in Kannex as well as by interested governmental agencies.

Further we'd like to note that since the cards by policy are issued from the participating nation's processing center and on behalf of and through corporations, organizations, and governmental agencies in that nation; these processing centers always follow local banking laws and regulations.

I believe this meets all the concerns and requirements expressed thus far. With best regards we look forward to a bright and prosperous future together. If you have any additional concerns we'd be glad to answer and assist in any way possible.

Applicant Nation: SillyString
What is/are the primary purpose you will be issuing this card: A card will be issued to all tourists who desire one and accepted at all major locations, in order to provide an improved visitor experience. They will also be available to residents, but optional as bits of string are accepted everywhere.
Are there any special requests or any information you'd like to add: They will be primarily issued at the airport, with hotels able to submit requests remotely for tourists who decide later during their visit that a card would be in their interest.

We would like them to be able to function as debit cards, not credit cards. Visitors should be able to add money to them (be it online, in person, or over the phone), or tie them directly to a foreign bank account. They should also be able to take money out of them, specifically to pay kiosk vendors or others who might not be able to accept card payments. All hotels will be equipped with ATMs that can do such withdrawals and deposits.

We additionally request that no currency exchange fee be charged to the user, nor any other fee that accrues through ownership or normal use (such as a monthly maintenance fee, atm fee, transaction fee, etc). Instead, we would prefer to negotiate either paying a set monthly fee directly from the nation of SillyString, or providing various privileges (such as reduced costs or guaranteed availaibility) to citizens of Ceretis or employees of Mantle.
