AGENT Unit 100
A portable card issuing machine that registers a customer, verifies who they are, and prints and encodes a working card in front of them — on a table, in a tent, in a village, anywhere the branch has not been built yet.

Opening an account normally takes three machines and a queue: a workstation to enrol, a reader to authenticate, and a card bureau somewhere else that posts the card two weeks later. The AGENT Unit 100 collapses that into a single sealed, lockable case an operator can carry to the customer.
Inside is a full industrial PC running Windows, so the bank's existing core-banking and enrolment software runs on the device rather than beside it.
The card printing module and a 200-card feeder sit under the lid. Blank stock goes in, a personalised and encoded card comes out of the front slot — the same card the customer would otherwise have waited weeks to receive by post.
Photograph the applicant, scan their ID document or barcode, and record a fingerprint.
Match against the national ID or smart card, and take a signature on screen with the electromagnetic pen.
Write the chip, magnetic stripe or contactless profile, and set the PIN on the certified PIN pad.
Print the card edge to edge in colour, hand it over, and print the receipt.

Identity is the hard part of issuing a card away from the branch. The AGENT reads documents, chips, contactless credentials and the person themselves, so enrolment does not depend on paperwork the customer may no longer have.
The encrypting PIN pad is PCI certified and physically separate from the touchscreen. Keys carry braille markings, and the stainless steel keypad is rated for 30,000 hours MTBF — the machine is built to be handled by strangers, outdoors, all day.
The same enrolment-to-issuance chain solves very different problems depending on where the case is opened.
People arrive at a relief site with no card, no phone and often no documents. Enrol them biometrically, verify against the national ID record over LTE, and hand over a live payment card in minutes — so relief money moves through the banking system instead of as cash in envelopes.
Fingerprint enrolment makes each registration unique, which stops duplicate claims across distribution points. One card can carry both the identity record and the entitlement balance, and the receipt printer gives every recipient a paper record on the spot.
Serve villages and districts where a permanent branch will never pay for itself. An operator opens the case on a table for a day, enrols new customers, issues cards immediately, and closes the branch again at four o'clock.
Take account opening to the customer's own premises: payroll cards on a factory floor, student cards during registration week, staff credentials during onboarding — hundreds of cards issued where the people already are.
Register beneficiaries in place with biometric proof, then issue the instrument that carries the payment. The audit trail begins at the moment of enrolment rather than weeks later at a card bureau.
A working counter that can be carried in, set up in minutes and packed away the same evening — with the bank's own card in the visitor's hand before they leave the stand.
The lid seals over the screen, the readers and the card stock; the case locks with a key. What was a service counter a minute ago is luggage.
The 58 mm thermal printer sits on the rear panel with full and partial cutting, so the customer walks away with a receipt for the enrolment, the card issue or the payment — which matters most exactly where digital confirmation is least reliable.
