2. About PCI
The Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) applies to ALL retailers and other merchants who store, process
or transmit cardholder data. Established by the five major credit card companies, it’s designed to ensure cardholders’
account and card information is protected and guarded after they conduct transactions across payment channels, including
POS terminals and ATMs. It consists of 12 basic requirements, and over 200 detailed sub-requirements.
Secure, flexible, fast
simplified PCI compliance
PaySecure Connect significantly overcomes the complexity of achieving and maintaining
compliance with PCI data security standards and is the first package to offer consolidated payments
authorisation with a scalable communication and managed services network.
Providing an easily implemented, fully secure retail network environment for payment and managed voice & data services,
PaySecure Connect is a reliable and cost-effective way for retailers – and other organisations who take credit card transactions –
to reduce the risk of non-compliance with PCI regulations while benefiting from the latest connectivity technologies, reduced
costs, and improved speeds and performance.
With PaySecure Connect you’ll also benefit from wide-ranging operational advantages. Rapid transaction times improve customer
throughput and 24/7 support is included with every licence. And no matter how many managed services you opt for, you only
