We want you to know that we are keeping in close touch with the Virtual Terminal and Mobile App providers as they work through the process of certifying new hardware and software so that you can accept Chip Cards when the card is present for the transaction. Just a reminder, EMV does not pertain to transactions when the card is not present.
The process and timing of certifying hardware with the card processors varies by the particular providers. Be assured we will keep you informed when the new hardware is available and will assist you with the set up and utilization.
In the meantime, if we can assist you in any way please contact our Client Care Team or your designated Relationship Manager.
For those who might be asking….What is a virtual terminal? A virtual terminal is an internet-based facilitator of electronic payments. It allows you to process swiped or hand-keyed transactions using any computer with an internet connection.
Mobile apps allow you to process swiped transactions via a mobile app that is downloaded on a smart phone or tablet.
If you are thinking you would like to consider these types of processing for credit card transactions, we can help. Go here to learn more and contact us for a free consultation.
