Is Your Business Ready for EMV?

As a business owner, I’m sure you are all sick and tired of hearing about EMV Compliance. It has been everywhere for the last year, and nobody seems to know what is going on. Nobody understands the purpose of it and nobody cares. I mean the deadline was supposed to be October of 2015 that everyone had to be EMV Compliant. But that was nine months ago, and still, nobody cares. Does it matter? Is it worth the cost? What’s the point? Why the big change? Should I care? The EMV shift is EXTREMELY important. The Government has put a couple of extensions on the deadline due to the amount of work needed to make this change was a larger challenge than expected. But even more important than it being… Read More.

Business Owners, Are You Ready for the NEW EMV Credit Cards?

What is EMV? “EMV is a technical standard for smart payment cards and for payment terminals and automated teller machines which can accept them. EMV cards are smart cards (also called chip cards or IC cards) which store their data on integrated circuits rather than magnetic stripes, although many EMV cards also have stripes for backward compatibility. They can be contact cards which must be physically inserted (or “dipped”) into a reader, or contactless cards which can be read over a short distance using radio-frequency identification technology. Payment cards which comply with the EMV standard are often called chip-and-PIN or chip-and-signature cards, depending on the exact authentication methods required to use them.” – More on EMV Watch our President, Renee VanHeel on San Diego 6 News: VIDEO Renee VanHeel Talks… Read More.

To sign or not to sign?

Guest Blog Post by Account Manager Mick Collins The Credit Card industry has a bad reputation. Many sales reps of processing companies only care about locking your businesses into a lengthy contract that will only sweeten the deal for their commissions or end of year bonuses. To get that ink on paper, they will say or do almost anything just to get your signature. Free hardware, isn’t actually free A typical offering in the credit card processing industry is offering ‘free’ hardware in exchange for a 2-4 year (sometimes longer) contract. But here is what they don’t tell you. The cost of that hardware is recuperated overtime through the transactions costs and processing fees. So in essence, you’re still paying for your own hardware, and it was never ‘free’ in… Read More.
