Eliminate Credit Card Data Theft Worries and Stay PCI-Compliant
Your clients provide you with credit card data to pay for the veterinary services you provide. The ways in which that data is handled matters—to your clients and to the PCI Standards Security Council. Following the 12 key requirements put forth by this organization—as well as the 78 base requirements and 400 test procedures—keeps your veterinary practice compliant. But who will help you to make sure everything is in order? We will.
PCI Compliance: The Foundation of Credit Card Security Protocol
Is PCI compliance mandated by law? No. But has it been established as a court precedent? Meaning that non-compliance has helped to rule against businesses in cases where credit card information was stolen? Yes.
Can credit card companies fine veterinary practices that aren’t PCI compliant? Yes.
And can those same credit card companies ban the business from accepting payments? Yes.
As you can see, it doesn’t matter if you’re accepting one credit card payment a day or 100, becoming (and staying) PCI compliant should never be considered optional.
Let the PCI-compliance experts at Computer Services Unlimited oversee your fulfillment of these requirements, to protect your clients’ credit card data and your veterinary practice’s reputation.
