Is the PAYware Mobile payment application secure?
Yes. Like all VeriFone products, PAYware Mobile goes through third-party testing and validation. PAYware Mobile is validated against the PCI SSC’s (PCI Security Standards Council) strict regulations. The PCI SSC sets the standards that payment system vendors must follow when developing hardware and software. The PAYware Mobile software application is PA DSS 1.2 (Payment Application Data Security Standards) approved by the PCI SSC. As part of the security standards, your customer’s account information is truncated on all data fields and reports. In addition, PAYware Mobile when used with the credit card encryption sleeve provides “end-to-end encryption” of all card holder information. This exclusive PAYware Mobile feature literally protects your customers information at the exact instant it is swiped through the sleeve. There is no more definitive security that you could offer your customers.
Yes. Like all VeriFone products, PAYware Mobile goes through third-party testing and validation and was designed to strict industry guidelines and best practices for payment applications. In conformance with those guidelines and best practices, your customer’s account information is truncated on all data fields and reports. In addition PAYware Mobile uses the de facto industry standard for card encryption, VeriShield Total Protect, to encrypt data as the card is swiped, thus ensuring no compromise of card information.
