Press Release 5 September 2007

ID Data Group PLC

('ID Data' or the 'Company')

ID Data Group plc teams up with MasterCard(R)
to launch 'Tap & Go(TM)' payment technology

ID Data Group Plc (AIM:IDD), the smart card solutions and outsourcing business,
announces that it has delivered 'Tap & Go(TM) contactless payment cards for the
MasterCard UK launch of PayPass(TM), the MasterCard contactless payment
technology particularly well suited for small transactions.

ID Data today confirmed that it has successfully developed and delivered the
UK's MasterCard(R) Prepaid cards with PayPass(TM), the next generation of
contactless payment cards from MasterCard.

This project has shown that ID Data has the ability to compete in the new and
challenging environment of RFID secure payments and has a process that can
deliver flexible and innovative solutions in short timeframes.

MasterCard invited ID Data to participate in this project with a demanding time
scales for the launch of the first promotional PayPass cards in the UK.

'Tap & Go' contactless payments are seen as the next major step in the
development of card payment solutions which effectively replace the use of cash
in every day low value transactions.

The PayPass solution for the MasterCard UK launch targets small value purchases
where the card transactions do not have to be authorised online, but instead
take place between the chip within the card itself and the PayPass-enabled
reader. Once a preset offline spending limit for contactless purchases is met,
the cardholder must perform a CHIP & PIN transaction.

The associated convenience delivers major advantages for both the consumer and
retailer. The simplicity of operation makes each purchase considerably quicker
than cash or conventional debit / credit card transactions using conventional
chip and PIN technology.

PayPass functionality is expected to play a key role in payment cards issued
under the MasterCard brand in the coming years. As one of the manufacturers for
the UK launch, ID Data's state of readiness should allow it to gain additional
revenue from its financial and banking clients elsewhere in the UK and Europe.

ID Data Group CEO, Peter Cox, said, 'This major development has once again shown
ID Data has the internal skills and technology to deliver leading edge
solutions. ID Data has demonstrated not only its capability in producing
complex dual interface products but also in card personalisation and the loading
of pre-approved funds. We look forward to working with MasterCard on other time
sensitive developments in the near future.'

Commenting on the launch, MasterCard's General Manager for UK and Nordics, John
Bushby, said 'In the UK alone, there are currently in excess of 20 billion
payments under 10, with a value of approximately 200 billion a year. We
believe that MasterCard PayPass is the faster, and more convenient way to pay
for small purchases under 10. The Project Team at MasterCard have been
impressed by ID Data's speed to market capability given the technical
development work required.'

At last,IDD has come out of its coma,i hope the SP does the same,fantastic news!!.

well i could not resist. i am back in. with id cards soon to make an appearance as well,things could finally start to move.... hope everyone's patience and faith is rewarded including everyone at IDD.

can any one tell me why its red when thay are buys.

Dave, because the mid-price is showing as .65 but the buys are at .62/.63

thanks, got in with 70,000 buy at 0.62. hope thay do well.

Yes, there should be an improvement from here on Dave, although having dipped my toe in with 50000 they are surely doomed now!!

it could be a good one if the card takes off,

MasterCard carpeted the Millenium Bridge in London with enlarged pictures of cash on Monday to advertise the card; maybe the cash will turn real now!

Well lets hope IDD are making a reasonable return on the deal,which will add to profits,which is what we really need for this to take off.

just got another 40,000, thats me well in.

talk about a rollercoaster. on the strength of a 50k sell they drop the price 15%. intriguing and another reason why this game baffles me. any ideas or guesses?

ID Data wins major contract for retail loyalty project worth 1.5 million

ID Data Group plc, the smart card and card solutions group, today announces that
it has been awarded a contract by one of Europe's leading retailers to assist in
the re-launch of its award winning loyalty program. The contract, which involves
the delivery of personalised loyalty cards with patented key fobs, is expected
to impact on ID Data's second half results for the year ended 31 March 2008 by
adding approximately 1.5 million of new sales.

ID Data has a solid reputation within Europe for delivering high quality loyalty
card solutions. ID Data has a proven ability to deliver complete solutions in
the retail sector where client demand involves large volumes of sophisticated
and personalised cards and associated items delivered in short time frames. In
the past, ID Data has delivered the successful launch of Tesco Clubcard, Boots
Advantage and Nectar, amongst many others loyalty programs across Europe.

The new contract will use a patented key fob design, which has a strong proven
track record in global retail programs. ID Data's key fob, which offers
longevity combined with a wide range of reading POS technologies including
barcodes, magnetic stripe and RFID, has passed numerous independent tests and
has outperformed competitive product offerings.

Commenting on this contract win Peter Cox, CEO of the ID Data Group plc said,

'We have been through a very tough trading period where competitors have forced
prices down to levels where we understand clients were buying lower-quality
product through following a price driven procurement policy. This contract
demonstrates our commitment to adhere to our stated principles of only accepting
contracts at the right price and focusing on clients who demand both quality and
leading edge technology to protect their brand integrity.'

'This contract win resulted from our proven capabilities and the delivery of
innovative products that provide true value for money through cost savings from
longer life cycles. Many retailers are now looking at the total product life
cycle costs associated with their loyalty and gift card programs and have
realised that investment in initial high quality card/fob pack costs is
necessary to reduce ongoing costs including call centre complaints, lack of
product in the hands of their customers and postal costs of replacements.'

'Over the last two years, ID Data has suffered a loss of business from choosing
to not compete with unrealistic margins. This contract, together with others
under current negotiation, show increasing awareness of the link between quality
and price, and subsequently the importance of choosing a proven and trusted
provider rather than attractive prices. For this reason we have seen many
clients returning to ID Data over the last months, who have recognised the need
to focus on quality and customer service.'

'The name of our client cannot be disclosed at this time due to commercial
confidentiality, but will be released on completion of the contract and their
appropriate consent.'

- Ends-
