If you’ve ever handled payment cards, you’ve probably heard of PCI Compliance. You’ve likely heard of PCI security standards, and the term “PCI compliance,” and you’ve probably seen their name (as PCI Compliance or PCI DSS) on your statement as a type of transaction fee or a monthly or annual fee.
According to PCI Compliance’s website, they are a “global forum for the ongoing development, enhancement, storage, dissemination and implementation of security standards for account data protection.” In 2006, American Express, Discover, JCB (a Japanese credit card issuer), MasterCard, and Visa (the “Big Five”) got together and formed this organization: The Payment Card Industry Security Standards Council (PCI-ISS).
We have a great post on our blog that explains PCI Compliance in its entirety in layman’s terms (actually divided into Part 1 and Part 2).
When you choose EPS as your merchant services provider, we will help you ensure you’re in compliance with PCI security standards, which are comprised of twelve specific security requirements, all designed to protect cardholder information.
The bottom line for us is that we want you to be as knowledgeable as you want to be, equipped to ask the right questions, and feel like your relationship with EPS is something you don’t have to think about.
