Learn Everything You Need to Know About Credit Card Processing

API

A payment processing API is certainly the way to go if you require a particularly specific payment solution for your website or app. Some merchant services providers make their API technology available to developers for integration into their proprietary apps, making it the ideal online credit card processing solution for businesses that require additional customization.

 

Compliance & Security

Accepting credit cards puts you in charge of protecting your customers’ sensitive information. Companies can ensure their security and compliance with industry standards in two ways: PCI and EMV compliance. Continue reading to find out what each of these terms implies and how your company can stay in compliance.

PCI DSS Compliance

PCI, or Payment Card Industry, is a set of rules put in place to secure consumers’ sensitive information and guarantee sufficient security precautions are implemented at places that accept credit cards. Once a year, you must submit a short quiz to become PCI compliant.

If you are not PCI compliant, you may be charged a PCI non-compliance fee by the credit card companies themselves. This is not a cost linked with your merchant processor, which is critical to understand. Stax insures that all of our members are compliant within the first 60 days of joining us, allowing you to save the cost and keep your information secure.
