More specifically, we are working on enhancing our eKYC solutions to support identity documents beyond the Hong Kong Identity Card (such as e-passports and China Identity Card), as well as support of multi-platforms (such as web-based, tablet versions and kiosk/service centre models). In fact some of these enhanced features would be deployed on our solution to be delivered to support the eMPF platform. Another area which we are exploring is on extending the use of our digital onboarding solutions currently by individual only to corporate use. To this end, we are looking into possible collaboration with partners in this segment to capture this corporate digital onboarding opportunity. Last but not least, regarding our new class of recognised digital certificate, ID-Cert Class 12 which was mentioned in the 2020 Annual Report, we are working on a target pilot launch date of the service towards the end of this year. For the pilot launch of our new ID-Cert Class 12, we have already attracted a number of stock brokers interested to join and at least two of them have confirmed their participation. We are working with them on development of a total solution supporting application of the new ID-Cert for use by their clients on their platform. Other Services Business Review For the first half of 2021, our Other Services business segment recorded remarkable results as its turnover and segment profit both grew considerably compared with the same period last year. The total revenue from Other Services comprising Smart PoS and GETS-related services was HK$13.8 million, representing an increase of 20.9% compared with the revenue at HK$11.4 million for the same period last year. Segment profit during the reporting period surged 44.1% year-on-year from HK$4.9 million last year to HK$7.0 million this year. As the local retail market slowly recovered following the gradual relaxation of social distancing measures since early this year, the Smart PoS business recorded improvement during the period with revenue increasing 43.8% year-on-year from HK$2.1 million last year to HK$3.0 million this year. Apart from the ongoing maintenance service income from existing Smart PoS deployment, revenue for the period this year was also generated from a new Smart PoS sales order from our major bank customer as well as a small development project from this customer. Though this Smart PoS sales order was not sizeable, we were pleased to see our Smart PoS business slowly reviving from almost a standstill since the beginning of last year.
