Retail POS EMV Certification: pcAmerica CRE and RPE
EMV Deadline:
As of October 1st 2015, the liability for fraudulent transactions has partially shifted from the card issuing banks to the party with less secure credit card accepting technology (EMV compliance). Though, in no way, accepting EMV has been mandated by VISA, Master Card, Discover or American Express. However, merchants experiencing high percentage of fraudulent transactions are advised to update their POS terminals to accept EMV.
EMV Retail Solution:
Currently, our retail and quick service merchants have an option to accept EMV cards utilizing pcAmerica Cash Register Express and Restaurant Pro Express with Verifone Vx805 or PAX S300 Pin Pads. Whether, additional middleware such as DataCap is required depends on the processing platform.
List of EMV Supported Processing Platforms:
First Data (Certified on DataCap with Verifone Vx 805)
Heartland Payment Systems (Certified with PAX S300)
Mercury (Certified on DataCap with Verifone Vx 805)
Vantiv (Certified on DataCap with Verifone Vx 805)
More platforms are coming soon
