EMV Solution Is Available Today With Eight Processors in the U.S. and Canada
LAS VEGAS and BANNOCKBURN, Ill. — Dec. 15, 2016 — (PRWeb) —
Payment gateway provider Shift4 Corporation and Club Automation, a cloud-based club management software provider, today announced the general availability of their joint EMV-certified solution for health and athletic clubs.
The solution includes:
- Layered payment security: EMV helps prevent the fraudulent use of stolen card data in card-present environments. With Shift4’s DOLLARS ON THE NET and Club Automation, health and fitness club operators can process EMV payments while adding the layered security of point-to-point encryption (P2PE) and tokenization. This keeps sensitive cardholder data out of the club’s payment processing environment, greatly reducing their breach profile and PCI scope — and protecting their members’ payment data from hackers.
- Thirteen supported devices: Shift4 currently supports a variety of EMV-capable terminals by Ingenico Group and Verifone, with options for USB, serial, Ethernet, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity. This allows health and fitness club operators to customize their EMV implementations to fit their organizations.
- Bank and processor neutrality: Shift4 is currently certified for EMV with eight major processors in the U.S. and Canada — with more on the way — delivering unparalleled coverage of acquirers in North America and the Caribbean. This makes it easy for health and athletic club operators to adopt EMV without changing their financial relationships and gives them the freedom to negotiate the best payment processing rates or make a switch if needed.
Max Longin, partner, Club Automation, said:
“At Club Automation, our motto is ‘Work Smarter,’ and we strive to help health and fitness club operators run their facilities as easily and efficiently as possible. Our new integration with Shift4 furthers this mission, enabling club operators to securely process EMV payments without hassle.”
Dave Oder, CEO, Shift4, said:
“Shift4 solves payments problems that others in the industry haven’t even thought of yet. While the EMV liability shift has left many merchants clamoring to adjust their infrastructure and business practices, our integration with Club Automation solves these problems for health and athletic clubs by providing a comprehensive, flexible, and completely bank- and processor-neutral solution.”
