While growing numbers of retailers are in compliance with the latest Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard (PCI DSS) control objectives, this is not enough to prevent compromises of cardholder data. VeriFone makes it easy for merchants to accept a variety of card-based payments and enjoy the revenue-generating potential of value-added services at the point of sale.
