Postilion wins Middle East contract | OnWindows.com
The Arab National Bank has selected a Postilion, (a division of S1) solution to manage its card issuance programme.

The enterprise level system sits in the bank’s computer centre and runs on Microsoft Windows Server technology, as well as making use of SQL Server database.
