The CBORD Group, Inc., a leading provider of campus card systems and Higher One, a leading provider of customized private label and one card banking solutions to higher education institutions have announced a partnership agreement that will make the companies’ systems interoperable through CBORD’s Campus Elements© Program.

Under the agreement, the two companies are jointly developing an interface which will provide seamless operation between CBORD Odyssey Privilege Control System and Higher One’s system to provide joint customers the advantage of targeted banking services along with their campus card privileges.
