FreedomPay Adds New EMV-Ready Payment Terminals to payment solutions
New additions to FreedomPay’s listing on the PCI Security Standards Council website offer merchants form factors to solve for mobile, retail and unattended payment experiences
Radnor, PA – April 23, 2015 – FreedomPay Commerce Platform, North America’s first PCI Validated P2PE solution with EMV and NFC ready payment terminals, has enhanced its offering with a range of new secure devices for merchants that deliver operational superiority to solve for multiple payment use cases. With solutions for retail, restaurant, lodging and e-commerce, FreedomPay delivers the industry’s most comprehensive P2PE solution that can address the diverse requirements of complex payment environments.
Newly approved payment devices from Ingenico Group include a range of solutions, such as the mobile iSMP and iCMP devices with Bluetooth connectivity and the iWL series, offering WiFi, Bluetooth and cellular connectivity for pay-at-table scenarios; the iSC480 with digital signature capture and multimedia touchscreen display; and unattended solutions including iUP250 and iUC180 with pin-pad and contactless payments for kiosk and self-service environments.
FreedomPay’s P2PE solution now offers the most complete set of hardware options approved by PCI to reduce the merchant’s scope for PCI DSS compliance. The multi-functional FreedomPay Commerce Platform powers customer interaction with value added services for merchants like Dynamic Currency Conversion (DCC), fraud protection, and incentives and loyalty programs for consumers.
PCI Compliance Scope Reduction
By implementing a Validated P2PE solution, merchants enjoy the benefits of a reduced scope for annual PCI DSS compliance. Because all sensitive cardholder data is encrypted at the point of interaction, the merchant’s point of sale system and network are exempted from the documentation required for PCI compliance. The time, cost and complexity of vulnerability scans and penetration testing, as well as onerous self assessment questionnaires are substantially reduced with a Validated solution, offering merchants an easier path to PCI compliance.
