Integration Options
Hyper Cards work with ALL company card hosting software both on Windows and Linux environments. There are 2 ways of working with our Hyper Card range of products:
1. Using our own Hyper Driver
This allows your software to talk to each card reader as if it were a standard individual USB card reader.
- No development is required.
- Compatible both with Windows and Linux systems.
- Replacing the system WinSCard.dll (Windows)/psclite (Linux) will prevent normal PC/SC USB readers from working.
- In Windows systems, the Hyper Driver might be replaced with the original WinSCard.dll during a Windows Update and our driver will need to be reinstalled.
- Each Hyper Card device connected by one USB connection can only be used by one application at a time
- The operating system will see the Hyper Card device as a single USB device. Card slots can't be individually virtualized using USB virtualization.

- Compatible both with Windows and Linux systems.
- Requires development time.
- Requires signing an NDA.
