Ticket partners with IDEMIA Secure Transactions to enable digital payments in Brazil
Following Google Pay enablement, Edenred Brasil's brand recently announced the launch of contactless payment, via Apple Pay, for the Cartão Ticket, Ticket Restaurante, Ticket Alimentação, Ticket Flex and Ticket Super Flex benefits.
Posted on 12.09.25
To make its latest innovation possible, Ticket, the Benefits and Engagement brand of Edenred Brasil, has partnered with IDEMIA Secure Transactions (IST), a leader in providing secure technological solutions for the digital payments sector, after a longstanding relationship between the two companies. Together, they bring the integration with Google Pay and Apple Pay, allowing people who use Cartão Ticket, Ticket Restaurante, Ticket Alimentação, Ticket Flex and Ticket Super Flex to make payments using their mobile phones.
To implement mobile payments, we developed a technology from scratch, and the long-standing partnership with IDEMIA Secure Transactions, both in Brazil and in Europe, was fundamental to this. We have a passion for customers as one of our values and priorities and we want to enable an increasingly fluid journey for all our audiences.

IST supports Edenred Brasil in digitizing Ticket cards in third-party mobile wallets, through its proprietary platform “IDEMIA Token Platform”. The tokenization technology used replaces valuable data with equivalent elements (tokens), which have no value outside the system. The solution includes the use of the contactless White label Discover technology (D-PAS – C6), selected to enable NFC Ticket tokens in the POS terminal.
As a long-standing global partner of Edenred Ticket, IDEMIA Secure Transactions draws on decades of leadership in tokenization and advanced payment technologies to expand the presence of Edenred Ticket, which already operates fully digitally, in consumers’ leading digital wallets. This launch represents a pivotal milestone in the evolution of digital wallets, delivering greater convenience and security to consumers, while paving the way for further deployments for its client. We are proud to enable millions of seamless and secure transactions every day, reaffirming our commitment to technological excellence and strong client parnership.
Marcelo Annarumma, SVP Payment Services LATAM at IDEMIA Secure Transactions
Throughout the development of the Google and Apple Pay integration projects, IDEMIA Secure Transactions’ global team, together with a fully dedicated team in Brazil, with professionals across engineering, solutions architecture, project managers, customer success, systems integration and support, worked alongside professionals from Ticket and acquiring companies.
By enabling the digitisation of their cards in Apple Pay, following last years successful integration in Google Pay, IST continues to support Edenred in delivering secure and seamless contactless payment experiences. At the same time, IST will also support other Edenred entities in different countries in the digitalization and implementation of similar projects.
