EMV chip card technology has made a huge introduction to the market so our terminals have been EMV-enabled. With this, it means that swipe is included along with chip and pin as well as chip and signature.
In the years ahead, the magnetic data strip on cards is expected to be replaced by a small microchip on the front of the card. Why? You will remain protected as it is difficult to copy!
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) applies to companies of any size that accept credit card payments. If your company intends to accept card payment, and store, process and transmit cardholder data, you need to host your data securely with a PCI compliant hosting provider.
Do you own your equipment? If so, Payment Partner can help with numerous manufacturers and models. For no charge, we can reprogram all of your terminals so they communicate to our processing network. For example, we can help with Equinox, Omni, Hypercom, Ingenico, Verifone, and RMD.
